Twenty-Fifth Sunday after Trinity, November 17th, 2024
In today's Epistle (I St. John 3:1), we hear the following: "BEHOLD, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God" It is good to reflect on the fact that God has chosen us above all other creatures to be His chosen ones. For elsewhere we hear in Scripture: "Being made so much better than the angels, as he has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. For to which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you?" (Hebrews 1:5-6) In other words, It was the intention that Our Blessed Saviour was born as a human being and not as an angel. God proves the love that He has for us by sending His Son to humanity. We should take time to reflect on the fact that we are each chosen to be called the sons and daughters of God. The God that has created the entire universe has chosen us as His sons and daughters. He has sent His Son to be a human being in order to redeem fallen humanity from its' sins. This fact should boggle the mind when you think about "what manner of love" the Father has for each one of us.
Join us at 10:30 AM on Sundays at St. Margaret church. We worship at the beautiful chapel at Marquette Manor, located at 8140 N. Township Line Road on the Northwest side of Indianapolis.
Please consider joining us for Mass. Come hear the Word of God found in the King James Version of the Bible and the 1928 Book of Common Prayer. Consider setting aside an hour of your week where you can dedicate that time solely to God. Come hear the Word of God. Listen to God speaking to you directly and hear what He has to say for YOU! Receive the Precious Body and Blood at Communion time to be strengthened and nourished for your journey!
