WENESDAY- 15TH WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME –B
Gospel: Matthew 11: 25-27: You have hidden these things from the learned and revealed them to mere children.
I Reading: Exodus 3:1-6.9-12: The Lord appeared to Moses in the shape of a flame of fire, coming from the middle of a bush.
The Blindness of This Generation. The generation was blind to three things
1.    The people were blind to God’s truth:
a.    The wise are blind: self- sufficient
b.    The little children are not blind: teachable
2.    The people are blind to God’s will and purpose:
3.    The people were blind to the Messiah. Note: a man is blind to four facts about the Messiah:
a.    He is of God, His very own Son
b.    He has been given all things
c.     He is the Mediator
d.    He alone reveals God
Thought: Spiritual truth is “hidden” where? In God. The only key to spiritual truth is faith and trust in God. What Christ condemns is not intelligence and wisdom but intellectual pride and self-sufficiency.
