Gospel for Today - August 10, 2011


G O S P E L
 
Just as a grain of wheat must die if it is to bring forth life, so too must we surrender all that we are and have to the Lord if we want them to be truly fruitful in His Kingdom. Yet death is never the end; rather it is the start of new life.
 
ALLELUIA
R: Alleluia, alleluia
Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life, says the Lord.
R: Alleluia, alleluia
 
John 12:24-26
24 Jesus said to his disciples: “Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat; but if it dies, it produces much fruit. 25 Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life. 26 Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there also will my servant be. The Father will honor whoever serves me.”
 
my reflections
t h i n k : Death is never the end; rather it is the start of new life.
