GOSPEL THOUGHTS
*Ordinary Season : 23rd Week : Tuesday*
*Gospel : Lk 6:12-19*
*First Reading : Col 2:6-15*
*A Powerful Team for God's Work*
*1) God is Team*
God lives in a Team and God is team
Father, Son and the Holy Spirit : A beautiful and perfect for every good work
This team is a inspiration to all of us
*2) Team is God's first Creation*
In the book of Genesis we see the beautiful creation of God
The claimax of the creation is the creation of a beautiful human team
God created them as man and woman and gave a command to strengthen the unity : Be frituful and multiply
*3) God chose His People a big team : 12 tribes of Israel*
These 12 tribes of Israel represent the powerful team of the people of God
The 12 tribes of Israel became very powerful during the time of King David
The team with 12 tribes of Israel became a powerful team on this earth
*4) Jesus prefers a team for His mission*
Jesus was very clear about his mission, suffering, death and resurrection
We see in today's Jesus is choosing the 12 apostles for his mission work
He wanted a team, where, people are able to do some works in building the kingdom of God
Therefore he forms a group to spead the good news of the kingdom of God
*5) 12 Apostles of Jesus*
The Gospel of the day gives us the names of the 12 apostles of Jesus
He chose them , gave them authority, power to heal the sick and needy, thus to build the Kingdom of God
This team became very powerful after the resurrection of Jesus, who spread the Good news
*6) The Need of team Work*
We can't survive by ourselves. We need the company of others
Team work is the foundation of everything. Family is a team, society is a team, parish is a team
Without the team one can't do any good works
God works in a team, and he wants us to work in a team
Am I ready to work in a team?
How is my team spirit?
*Think about it*
*God bless you and your family. Praying for you and your dear ones*
