Today's Readings

Some more of today's readings (Mon 5 Nov):

Luke 14: 12-14
He [Jesus] said also to the man who had invited him, “When you host a dinner or a banquet, don’t invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors so you can be invited by them in return and get repaid. But when you host an elaborate meal, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind. Then you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you, for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

Romans 11: 29-36
For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable. Just as you were formerly disobedient to God, but have now received mercy due to their disobedience, so they too have now been disobedient in order that, by the mercy shown to you, they too may now receive mercy. For God has consigned all people to disobedience so that he may show mercy to them all. Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how fathomless his ways!For who has known the mind of the Lord,or who has been his counselor?Or who has first given to God,that God needs to repay him? For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory forever! Amen.

Legion Assignment

Did the current week's Legion Assignment last Friday at 2000 hours, which was to lead a wake prayer for a deceased Catholic. The wake prayer consists of recitation of the Rosary, singing of hymns and a few intentions. Did the wake prayer at the home of the deceased, though the dead body had long since been removed and if I'm not wrong buried. The wake prayer lasted for about 45 minutes, then had a kind-of-tea-break (you know, Malaysian style, with the drinks and the kuihs).
