Readings for Wednesday.
Daily readings for gospel - First Reading for daily Gospel: Catholic Reading from the Book of Jonah 4:1-11: "You are concerned over a plant. And should I not be concerned over Nineveh, the great city?"
Jonah was greatly displeased and became angry that God did not carry out the evil he threatened against Nineveh. He prayed, "I beseech you, LORD, is not this what I said while I was still in my own country? This is why I fled at first to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and merciful God, slow to anger, rich in clemency, loathe to punish. And now, LORD, please take my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live." But the LORD asked, "Have you reason to be angry?" Jonah then left the city for a place to the east of it, where he built himself a hut and waited under it in the shade, to see what would happen to the city. And when the LORD God provided a gourd plant that grew up over Jonahs head, giving shade that relieved him of any discomfort, Jonah was very happy over the plant. But the next morning at dawn, God sent a worm that attacked the plant so that it withered. And when the sun arose, God sent a burning east wind; and the sun beat upon Jonahs head till he became faint. Then, Jonah asked for death, saying, "I would be better off dead than alive." But God said to Jonah, "Have you reason to be angry over the plant?" "I have reason to be angry," Jonah answered, "angry enough to die." Then the LORD said, "You are concerned over the plant which cost you no labor and which you did not raise; it came up in one night and in one night it perished. And should I not be concerned over Nineveh, the great city, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand persons who cannot distinguish their right hand from their left, not to mention the many cattle?"
Daily Psalm for Wednesday.
Responsorial Psalm is taken from the Book of Psalm 85(86),3-4,5-6,9-10: "Lord, you are merciful and gracious." (R).
- Have mercy on me, O Lord, for to you, I call all the day. Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. (R).
- For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in kindness to all who call upon you. Hearken, O LORD, to my prayer and attend to the sound of my pleading. (R).
- All the nations you have made shall come and worship you, O Lord, and glorify your name. For you, are great, and you do wondrous deeds; you alone are God. (R).

Daily Gospel - Luke 11:1-4.
Catholic Daily readings for Wednesday, Gospel for October 6 (Lord, teach us to pray.): At that time, Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, "Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples." He said to them, "When you pray, say: Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us, and do not subject us to the final test."
Catholic Daily Readings reflection, by Pope Francis.
"Prayer is a dialogue, it is having a relationship with God." Pope Francis.
In the daily Readings, we might ask ourselves what prayer really is? It is first a dialogue, a relationship with God. Man was created as a being in a personal relationship with God, who finds his full realization only in the encounter with his Creator.
God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, is in himself, a perfect relationship of love that is unity. Because we are created in the image and likeness of God, we too are called to enter into a perfect relationship of love. And the Mass, the Eucharist, is the privileged moment to be with Christ and, through Him, with God and with our brothers and sisters. But dialogue also means knowing how to remain in silence, in the presence of the other. The liturgy, he said, is not a time for chatting, but for recollection, to prepare the heart for the encounter with Jesus.
Jesus himself often withdrew to a secluded place" to pray; and his disciples, seeing his intimate relationship with the Father, asked him how to pray. Jesus says that the first thing necessary for prayer is to be able to call God "Father". If I cannot say "Father" to God, I cannot pray. We have to learn to say "Father", that is, to place ourselves in his presence with filial trust.
In this sense, we must be like children, able to entrust ourselves entirely to God, as children do with their parents. And, like children, we must also have a sense of wonder, we must allow ourselves to be surprised. When we talk to God in prayer, it is not talking to God like parrots. Instead, it means trusting ourselves and opening our hearts to let ourselves be surprised. The encounter with God at Mass is always a living encounter, not an encounter in a museum.
In the encounter with Nicodemus, Jesus spoke of the need to be born again. But how is this possible? This is a fundamental question of our faith, and this is the desire of every true believer: the desire to be reborn, the joy of beginning anew. Do we have this desire? Does each of us have the desire to be reborn always to meet the Lord? Do you have this desire?
In fact, the Lord surprises us by showing that he loves us even in our weakness. In the Mass, in our encounter with Jesus, the Lord goes out to meet our fragility to restore us to our first vocation: that of being in the image and likeness of God. This is the atmosphere of the Eucharist, this is prayer.. (Daily Readings reflection, General Audience, 2017, November 15).
Daily Prayer for the Gospel.
Lord Jesus, your Word dispels every negative emotion and strengthens me along the way as I meet you in prayer, for I know that I am weak without your love. With you I know that I can overcome every difficulty that comes my way, for you fill me with strength to be faithful to you in the face of life´s challenges. Free me from all those evil human inclinations that prevent me from loving you with all my heart. I trust in your loving intervention in my life at this time, for you are a close Father and friend. Amen. (Healing with the serenity prayer for Catholic Daily Readings and Holy Gospel - Qriswell Quero @Copyright 2021)
The Pope´s daily quotation.
The look of interdependence and sharing, the engine of love and the vocation to respect. These are the three keys to reading that illuminate our work for the care of our common home. Pope Francis.
Raise a little prayer to the Father praying for all the people who suffer from the terrible disease of cancer. May God grant them healing of Body and Soul.
