Tuesday – 19th Week of Ordinary Time B
Today we find ourselves presented with profound readings that challenge us to examine our understanding of humility, obedience, and our role in the Kingdom of Heaven. From the book of Ezekiel, we hear the Lord instructing His prophet to "eat this scroll" filled with lamentations, wailing, and woe. It is a challenging invitation; to consume and internalize the difficult truths of our faith, and to share them with a world that often rejects God's word. In the Gospel of Matthew, we are reminded that greatness in the Kingdom of Heaven is not about power or prestige, but about humility—represented through the innocent and trusting nature of a child.
