Today’s first reading from Paul still focused on unity in the new church that follows Jesus. My commentary wrote: This is the test. Does my grasp of, and living of, the Truth as I understand it lead me to a greater maturity, to becoming someone who more and more grows into the image of Christ, a person full of grace and truth? Great question!

In the gospel, Jesus reminds us to focus on cultivating our faith and gifts of the Holy Spirit to prepare for His coming. Pray for peace and unity here on Earth. Amen!
