About this listen
What is the true rhythm of an authentic Christian life? It is the one that welcomes, listens, makes one feel comfortable, happy, and offers possibilities. On the 16th Sunday in Ordinary time, the Church invites us to conduct a true rhythm of a Christian life. The Word of God gives us immense possibilities to imitate those holy men and women who embraced the true vision of God. We see in Abraham the beauty of hospitality and the blessings that flow from welcoming God and others with a generous heart. In St. Paul, we are reminded that suffering, when united with Christ, becomes part of our mission to reveal His presence to the world. And in Mary, we discover the power of stillness and the importance of choosing intimacy with Jesus above all else. As we gather this Sunday in our churches, let us open our hearts to receive God's Word, embrace the call to serve and suffer with purpose, and find rest at the feet of Christ — for there we encounter not only the Lord but the fullness of life He brings. These three readings invite us into a rhythm of Christian life.
