O God, who open your Kingdom to those who are humble and to little ones, lead us to follow trustingly in the little way of Saint Thérèse, so that through her intercession we may see your eternal glory revealed.

Holy Spirit of power, of strength, of love, of Grace and of Wisdom, I come to your Presence because I want my will to be guided by your inspirations, by all your instruction to help me transform problems into blessings.

Readings for Friday.

Daily readings for gospel - First Reading for daily Gospel: Catholic Reading from the book of Baruch 1:15-22: "We have sinned in the Lord´s sight and disobeyed him."

During the Babylonian captivity, the exiles prayed: "Justice is with the Lord, our God; and we today are flushed with shame, we men of Judah and citizens of Jerusalem, that we, with our kings and rulers and priests and prophets, and with our ancestors, have sinned in the Lord’s sight and disobeyed him. We have neither heeded the voice of the Lord, our God, nor followed the precepts which the Lord set before us. From the time the Lord led our ancestors out of the land of Egypt until the present day, we have been disobedient to the Lord, our God, and only too ready to disregard his voice. And the evils and the curse that the Lord enjoined upon Moses, his servant, at the time he led our ancestors forth from the land of Egypt to give us the land flowing with milk and honey, cling to us even today. For we did not heed the voice of the Lord, our God, in all the words of the prophets whom he sent us, but each one of us went off after the devices of his own wicked heart, served other gods, and did evil in the sight of the Lord, our God."

Daily Gospel - Luke 10:13-16.

Catholic Daily readings for Friday, Gospel for October 1 (Whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me.): At that time, Jesus said to them, "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty deeds done in your midst had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment than for you. And as for you, Capernaum, ‘Will you be exalted to heaven? You will go down to the netherworld.’ Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me. And whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me.""

Catholic Daily Readings reflection, by Pope Francis.

"Jesus´ preaching is addressed to each one of us," Pope Francis.

We read In the daily Readings that Jesus is saddened at being rejected, while the pagan cities like Tyre and Sidon, seeing His miracles, "would surely have believed". And He wept because these people were incapable of loving, even though He desired to reach every heart He met, with a message that was not a dictatorial message, but a message of love.

We, each one of us, can put ourselves in the place of the inhabitants of these three cities: I, who have received so much from the Lord, who was born in a Christian society, who have known Jesus Christ, who have known salvation, I who have been educated in the faith. However, it is effortless for me to forget Jesus. However, we think of the news of other people who, as soon as they heard the announcement of Jesus, converted and followed him. But we have become accustomed to this.

And this attitude harms us because it reduces the Gospel to a social or sociological fact, instead of a personal relationship with Jesus. Jesus speaks to me, he speaks to you, he speaks to each one of us. Jesus´ preaching is addressed to each one of us. How is it that those pagans, as soon as they heard Jesus´ preaching, went with him; and I, who was born here, in a Christian society, have become accustomed to it, and Christianity has become a social habit, a garment that I put on and then put aside? And Jesus weeps for each of us when we live our Christianity formally, not really.

There is the hypocrisy of sinners, but the hypocrisy of the righteous is the fear of the love of Jesus, the fear of letting ourselves be loved. And actually, when we do this, we try to take control of our relationship with Jesus. We say to him, "Yes, I´m going to Mass, but then you stay in the Church while I go home." And Jesus does not come home with us, he does not come into our families, into our children´s education, into our school, into our neighborhood... (Daily Readings reflection, Saint Martha, 2018, October 5).

Daily Prayer for the Gospel.

Lord, You know my heart all the difficult situations I have had to live through, but I continue to trust in Your love that embraces and consoles me. You have left me words of hope, but also hard words with which you warn me of the dangers of walking without you. I trust that your teachings correct my steps and give me strength to face all the obstacles in my life. Amen. (Healing with the serenity prayer for Catholic Daily Readings and Holy Gospel - Qriswell Quero @Copyright 2021)

The Pope´s daily quotation.

"Let us pray together for the seafarers and fishermen, who in recent times have faced many sacrifices, ensuring, with their work, food and other basic necessities for the human family to alleviate the suffering caused by the pandemic," Pope Francis.

Purpose for daily Gospel.

In every problem or difficulty that comes our way, we must confidently turn to our God the Father. He is our beloved Daddy who does not abandon us and does not leave us struggling alone.
