3rd Sunday - A (January 22, 2023)

 

Jesus Calls Me

Matthew 4: 12-23

 

Last week, the Sunday readings reminded that God has created us, and in Jesus our Savior, has made us God’s children. 

 

Of course, God always exists (God is), and God is always there for us. 

 

However, today, maybe we can ask ourselves, “When and how did I become aware of God and God’s presence in my life?”

 

Some of us might have received that knowledge through a concrete event, similar to the first disciples when Jesus called them, as recounted in today’s Gospel. 

 

Others might have grown in our awareness and knowledge of God gradually, over many years. 

 

Let’s think, pray, and thank God for the unique way that God reveals God’s presence and calls each of us to grow closer to God.
