GOSPEL ~ Matthew 9:36-10:8
The Mission of the Twelve
"The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, drive out demons. Without cost you have received; without cost you are to give."
Jesus calls and sends His disciples. The Gospel tells how Jesus sees the crowds and feels compassion for them. He knows they need guidance and care. So, He sends His disciples to preach, heal, and help.
Jesus does not send them alone. He gives them the power to do His work. They do not need to rely on their own strength. They are called to trust in Him and share what they have received.
This mission is not just for the first disciples. It is for all Catholics. Everyone is called to share the good news. This does not always mean preaching. It can be small acts of kindness, prayer, or simply living a life that reflects Christ’s love.
Sometimes, people feel unworthy or unprepared to spread their faith. But Jesus does not choose perfect people. He chooses ordinary people and gives them the grace to serve.
Faith is meant to be shared; God’s love is not something to keep to oneself. It is meant to be given freely, just as it has been received. Jesus calls His people to be His hands and feet in the world.
