TUESDAY- 25^th  WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME –B

Gospel: Luke 8:19-21: My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and put it into practice.

I Reading: Ezra 6:7-8.12. 14-20: The Jews finished the temple and celebrated the Passover.

Jesus Teaches the True Kingship, 8:19-21

Jesus teaches how to become a true family of God. There are two kinds of  families: the family of God and the family of a human being. There is a closer tie than the family, the tie (doing the Will of God with obedience and humility) that binds him and his followers together.

1. Jesus’ family sought him (v.19)

2. True kingship is not based upon relationships (v.20)

3. True kinship is based upon the Word of God: Hearing and doing it

Thought: True kinship is not based upon human relationships but those who do the Will of God; obeying and listening to the Word of God.
