19th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Reading 1: Wisdom 18:6-9 - It is wise to recall the many ways God has guided and protected us in the past. How has God cared for you in the past? your family? your parish?
Reading 2: Hebrews 11:1-2, 8-19 or 11:1-2, 8-12 - If we trust in God, we can move forward in life. Do you have faith in God's care for you? How can you show that you trust in God? Is God calling you to a deeper faith? How? What forward step can you take that, without faith in God, would be more difficult or impossible for you?
Gospel: Luke 12:32-48 or Luke 12:35-40 - Jesus always respects our freedom. We can say yes or no when he comes. The question is: When Jesus comes, will you want to keep your door closed, or open it up wide? Are you going to wait until the end of time to welcome Jesus, or can you begin today? How?
