Readings for the Week

Readings for Sunday, March 24:

Ex 3:1-8a, 13-15:   The Lord God calls Moses to lead His people and reveals His name to Moses.

1 Cor 10:1-6, 10-12: We must remain steadfast in our faith. We cannot become overconfident even though we are the recipients of God’s favor and grace.

Lk 13:1-9: Jesus tells us to reform and repent. Time will run out, and no one can ever count on another year. Now is the time!

Today’s Message: From the burning bush, Moses is called by God to lead His people out of slavery into freedom. The parable of the fig tree speaks, on the one hand, of God’s patience, but of the urgency of the call to conversion, on the other. Like the Hebrews of old, we too have failed to heed God’s call, thinking ourselves to be self-righteous.
