Sa imong pagkatulog karon, ayaw kalimot sa pag-ampo sa Dios ug sa pagpasalamat sa tanang grasya nga Iyang gihatag sa tibuok adlaw. Ang matag ginhawa, matag lakang, matag kalipay ug bisan ang mga kasakit nga imong nasinati, tanan kini mga pahinumdom sa Iyang mahigugmaong presensya. Ang pagpasalamat mao ang tinubdan sa tinuod nga kalinaw sa kasingkasing, kay pinaagi niini, atong giila nga ang tanang maayô nga atong nabuhat ug nadawat, gikan sa Dios. Sa kahilom sa kagabhion, itugyan kaniya ang imong kakapoy, mga kabalaka, ug mga damgo, ug tugoti Siyang mohupay sa imong espiritu. Kay sa pagkatulog nga giuban sa pag-ampo, ang kalag makakaplag og pahulay, ug ang kasingkasing mapuno sa paglaum alang sa bag-ong buntag.

Today’s Verse
“These patriarchs were jealous of their brother Joseph, and they sold him to be a slave in Egypt. But God was with him and rescued him from all his troubles. And God gave him favor before Pharaoh, king of Egypt.” — Acts 7:9-10 NLT
Devotion
Joseph was well thought of by his father Jacob. As a result, his father showed him favor in various ways. This did not sit well with his brothers – the “patriarchs” of our verse for today. In order to get rid of him, they sold him to be a slave in Egypt. In Egypt, Joseph served his master well, but he was unjustly thrown into prison anyway.

Judging solely on the basis of what happened to him, you might think that God was against Joseph. You might even think that God had forsaken him. Our verse for today, however, says just the opposite. It says that “God was with him.” Further, it says that God “rescued him from all his troubles.” Even further, it says that “God gave him favor before Pharaoh.” Despite what you might think, then, God was working in Joseph’s life even when he was having trouble.

In the same way, judging solely on the basis of some things that have happened, you might think that God is against you. You might even think that God has forsaken you. What was true for Joseph, however, is true for you. Despite everything that has happened, God is with you. “He will neither fail you nor abandon you” (Deuteronomy 31:6).

Further, God is not simply with you, He is also working to rescue you from all your troubles. He not only sees to your welfare while you’re in the midst of them, He also works to rescue you from them. “I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him” (Psalm 91:14-15).

Even further, God is not just with you, He is not just working to rescue you, He is also giving you favor with the people who are in a position to bless you. “For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor” (Psalm 84:11 ESV).

Today, therefore, don’t be so quick to think that God is against you or that He has forsaken you. Don’t be so quick to descend into that kind of negative thinking.

For God is with you – just like He was for Joseph.

Gospel Reflection - October 30, 2016
THIRTY-FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME (Luke 19:1-10)

Today's reading is the story of Zacchaeus' encounter with Jesus. Although most of us know this story well, I wonder how much thought we give to the meaning?

We know that Zacchaeus was a tax collector, not well thought of by the people of the town. We also know that because he was a short man, he was unable to see above the crowds that gathered to see and hear Jesus as he passed through the town.

Because he wanted very badly to see and hear this Jesus, who was the subject of much to do in town, he climbed a sycamore tree so that he was able to see and hear him.

In spite of his "importance" as a tax collector, he behaved in a child-like manner when he climbed that tree - so strong was his desire to know more about Jesus. To his surprise, Jesus, aware of what was in Zacchaeus heart, called upon him - saying, today I wish to dine with you. What a great reward for his attempt to know Jesus!

So, maybe the lesson today is for us to seek the truth with childlike openness, so that we are ready to encounter the Lord Jesus and respond to his surprising initiatives in our lives. He might invite himself to dinner.
