Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time

FEBRUARY 5, 2017

THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE

As children we sang the lively song This Little

Light of Mine. The words, of course, are based

on today’s Gospel, in which we are called as

disciples to be salt and light for the world.

Children are uninhibited about sharing their

faith. It’s only when we grow older that we

prefer to hide our light under a bushel basket

because our culture tends not to emphasize

discipleship. The message in this week’s

readings is clear: in order to give glory to God

through our discipleship, we must show the

light of Christ in our words and deeds. Not an

easy thing for inhibited adults. Often we may

think of salt and light in terms of what we do

for others, but it can be just as important not to

do something, such as getting angry with the

stranger on the road, or telling an offensive

joke.

“Accept the challenge of life, so we may feel the exhilaration of victory.”

“We have the answer. We just need to get quiet enough to hear it!’

“It’s okay to have an open mind when we know what to let in.”
