Luke
10:13–16
Jesus said: “Woe
to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the deeds of power done in you
had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in
sackcloth and ashes. But at the judgment it will be more tolerable for Tyre and
Sidon than for you. And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? No, you
will be brought down to Hades.” “Whoever listens to you listens to me, and
whoever rejects you rejects me, and whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent
me.”
Reflection
•
How do I feel about Jesus’ lamenting the fact that people
reject the Good News despite all he does for them?
•
Do I
find the truth can be painful at times and challenging to hear?
