Wednesday, 1st August, Alphonsus Liguori, Bishop & Doctor, Memorial

Matthew 13:44–46
Jesus said to the disciples, “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls; on finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.”
 
Reflection
 

  • What are the alternative gods that attract my energy and desire?
  • Would I give up all my inordinate attachments for the overwhelming precious treasure that will give meaning to my life?
