TWENTY-SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME—SEPTEMBER 26, 2021
Description
Our God is a God of surprises. He surprised the Israelite leaders in the first reading. He surprised the disciples in the gospel reading. And He didn’t ask anyone’s permission to pull off His surprise. Nor did He care if what He did didn’t follow and expected way of doing things.
Unwarranted disgust can result when God does not do things the way we expect Him to, especially if He choses to use someone we think not worthy of His choosing, someone who is not a member of the club.
We are much better disciples when we allow God to be God and satisfy ourselves for the part He has given us to play rather than comparing ourselves with other and judging their worth.
