You are happy when you hear the word of God and observe it.

"Happy are those who hear the word of God and keep it." (Luke 11: 28).

Saturday 10th October 2020, 27th Week in Ordinary Time.

A woman shouted out to Jesus where He was teaching:
"Happy the womb that bore you and the breasts you sucked!" Jesus responded by laying down a new rule in the Kingdom of God:
"Still happier those who hear the word of God and keep it!"

In the first Reading from Galatians, we read:  "Through faith you are all children of God in Christ Jesus." (Galatians 3: 26). What does this mean? In the new dispensation, everything depends on faith. It is faith all the way.  How close are you to Jesus? It depends on your faith.

Below are a few things faith can do to bless our life everyday:
#1 Faith enlarges our hearts to receive the blessings of God.
#2 Faith enables us to rise above our fears.
#3 When you have faith, you see God's hand everywhere, always and at all times.
#4 Through faith, we enjoy the Sacrament of the Present Moment. You know  that Jesus is always in you, the hope of glory. Do you really believe this? When you truly believe this, you see Jesus close to you enabling you to handle any problem.

"Happy are those who hear the word of God and keep it." Those who hear the word of God and observe it are those who hear the word and believe the word they hear. No one observes the word he disbelieves.
