In the first reading, St. Paul speaks of the grace God entrusted to him to proclaim the riches of Christ. Despite considering himself the least of the saints, he faithfully embraced his divine assignment.
Beloved, never despise yourself because of your background or present circumstances. God's grace can empower you to fulfil a great purpose. What matters is your willingness to obey Him and faithfully use the gifts He has given you.
In today's Gospel, Jesus teaches us to remain watchful and faithful stewards. Whatever God has entrusted to you—your time, talents, resources, family, position, or spiritual gifts—must be used responsibly.
Your blessings come with responsibilities. Your gifts come with assignments, and your opportunities come with accountability.
Do not wait until tomorrow to do what God expects of you today. Be faithful in little things, serve others with humility, and live every day ready to give an account of your stewardship to God.
REMEMBER TODAY
You have received grace for a divine purpose.
Do not underestimate what God can accomplish through you.
Be faithful in the little things entrusted to your care.
Use your gifts and resources to bless others.
Remain spiritually alert and ready for the Lord.
The greater your responsibility, the greater your accountability.
