TUESDAY, TWENTY THIRD WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME
Col 2: 6-15 Ps 145: 1-2, 8-11 Lk 6: 12-19
THE TRINITY OF TRANSFORMATION
The Trinity of Transformation– Rooted in Christ, Guided by Prayer, and Empowered to Serve – can lead to a life of meaning & purpose, fulfilling the mission of Jesus. Just as a tree’s roots dig deep into the earth, anchoring it firmly against strong winds and turbulent weather, being rooted in Christ provides a strong foundation for our spiritual lives. With Christ as our anchor, we are empowered to withstand life’s challenges, knowing that our roots run deep into something greater than ourselves. When we are rooted in Christ, we build a strong foundation that stands firm against life’s storms. This rootedness empowers us to live with confidence, hope, and a sense of purpose.
Prayer is our connection to God’s wisdom and love. When we pray, we open ourselves to God’s guidance and wisdom. Our hearts align with His plan, and we find peace and clarity, even in uncertain times. Just as Jesus modelled the importance of prayer, pouring out His heart before making crucial decisions like choosing the 12 apostles, we can seek God’s wisdom and guidance in our own life. It is only through prayer that we will cultivate a deeper intimacy with God. When we are rooted in Christ and guided by prayer, we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to serve others like Jesus. This empowerment enables us to fulfil the greatest commandment: to love God and to love our neighbours. In our service to others, we are transformed from within and our connection with God and others deepens. When we combine these three elements, we experience transformation. By embracing this ‘Trinity of Transformation’, we experience a life-changing journey of faith, prayer, and service. May we be transformed by God’s power and love, and may our lives reflect His glory. As we live out this trinity, we shall find joy, peace, and purpose in our relationship with God and others.
Response: How good is the Lord to all.
