TUESDAY- 32^nd  WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME –A

Gospel: Luke 17:7-10: We are merely servants: we have done no more than our duty.

I Reading: Wisdom 2:23-3:9: In the eyes of the unwise, they did appear to die, but they are in peace.

1. Obeying God is a duty, not a service (v.7-10)

a. The illust: A servant is a slave who serves his master

  1) to serve all day

  2) to serve all evening

  3) to serve until all others have retired

  4) to serve whether or not one is thanked or appreciated

b. The believer is to serve and obey until all of God’s commandments are done

c. The believer is to be humble in his service for the Lord

Thought: The servant serves his/her master; the believer is a servant and a servant is a slave who serves his/her Master (Rom 1:1). The believer is to serve and obey the commandments of God until all the works is done.
