Fr. Michael Osatofoh Eninlejie, MSP - Homily for Thursday Week 29 Ordinary time - October 22, 2020
THURSDAY 29TH WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR II
Ephesians 3:14-21, Luke 12:49-53
I HAVE COME TO BRING FIRE
As Christians, we sometimes experience turbulent moments in our lives just because we are Christians. This should not make us sacrifice our faith and morality.
In the gospel reading of today, Jesus tells us that we should not think that everything will go easy for us because we are Christians, we will be hated and discriminated as we try to practice our faith. In some families we see how they are divided because of their faith. I know a priest whose father disowned and refused to attend his ordination because his father did not approve him to be a priest. We can understand why Jesus would say that his coming would be as if he has brought war. In the midst of all the troubles we go through, we should still endeavour to be agents of peace; this is the only way we can show that we are true Christians. God help us. Amen.
