Doing evil, a human predicament

October 23, 2009
Friday of the Twenty-ninth Week in Ordinary Time

Reading 1
Rom 7:18-25a
For I do not do the good I want, but I do the evil I do not want.

Responsorial Psalm
Ps 119:66, 68, 76, 77, 93, 94R. (68b)
Lord, teach me your statutes.
Teach me wisdom and knowledge, for in your commands I trust.

Gospel
Lk 12:54-59
You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky;why do you not know how to interpret the present time?

Reflection
Wisdom of God is not just to live our life in this world, it is also to know about the life here after.
