If we serve God willingly, he will receive our prayers. RESPONSORIAL PSALM PS 34 (Refuge in the Lord) “The Lord hears the cry of the poor.”
2nd READING 2nd TIMOTHY 4: 6-8, 16-18 (A Merited Crown) Paul sees time running out and his life drawing to a close. He is comforted by faith in God’s just judgment. THE GOSPEL OF LUKE 18:9-14 (Humility) Pride brings no true reward but only projects an “image.” In humility true values are seen.
