Today’s first reading is from the prophet Amos. All of the prophets in the Old Testament preach of people turning away from sin. Amos is pointing out many ways the people are sinning against God and what the punishment will be.
In the gospel, Jesus tells one disciple that it will be difficult to follow Him because He has not even the comfort of a home. He also tells another disciple to let the spiritually dead bury the dead. My commentary said that maybe the disciple was just giving Jesus an excuse. Jesus is calling us now! Calling us to be holy! Amen!
Come Holy Spirit!
