Ecclesiasticus 4:11-19. Mark 9:38-50

The days of man are limited on the earth but adequate for training and for service. Each child of man is offered ways and means to grow in understanding, for Wisdom ministers to heart and mind through faith, tradition, and the conscience of each one. But all are free to choose the way of progress or rejection. The faithful and the true of heart are brought through all vicissitudes to know the Father's will and - in the power of Our saving, sanctifying love - to do it.

Be faithful, then, in all things as the Father is ceaselessly faithful to His beloved sons and daughters. And let the grace and power of Our compassion minister to others through your faithfulness.
