    Jesus made the disciples get into a boat

    and precede him to the other side of the sea,
    while he dismissed the crowds.
    After doing so, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray.
    When it was evening he was there alone.
    Meanwhile the boat, already a few miles offshore,
    was being tossed about by the waves, for the wind was against it.
    During the fourth watch of the night,
    he came toward them, walking on the sea.
    When the disciples saw him walking on the sea they were terrified.
    “It is a ghost,” they said, and they cried out in fear.
    At once Jesus spoke to them, “Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid.”
    Peter said to him in reply, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.”
    He said, “Come.”
    But when he saw how strong the wind was he became frightened;
    and, beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!”
    Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught him,
    and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?”
    After they got into the boat, the wind died down.
    Those who were in the boat did him homage, saying,
    “Truly, you are the Son of God.”

    After making the crossing, they came to land at Gennesaret.

    When the men of that place recognized him,
    they sent word to all the surrounding country.
    People brought to him all those who were sick
    and begged him that they might touch only the tassel on his cloak,
    and as many as touched it were healed.

    When Jesus heard of the death of John the Baptist,

    he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself.
    The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns.
    When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd,
    his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick.
    When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said,
    “This is a deserted place and it is already late;
    dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages
    and buy food for themselves.”
    He said to them, “There is no need for them to go away;
    give them some food yourselves.”
    But they said to him,
    “Five loaves and two fish are all we have here.”
    Then he said, “Bring them here to me,”
    and he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass.
    Taking the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven,
    he said the blessing, broke the loaves,
    and gave them to the disciples,
    who in turn gave them to the crowds.
    They all ate and were satisfied,
    and they picked up the fragments left over–
    twelve wicker baskets full.
    Those who ate were about five thousand men,
    not counting women and children.

    Someone in the crowd said to Jesus,

    “Teacher, tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.”
    He replied to him,
    “Friend, who appointed me as your judge and arbitrator?”
    Then he said to the crowd,
    “Take care to guard against all greed,
    for though one may be rich,
    one’s life does not consist of possessions.”

    Then he told them a parable.
    “There was a rich man whose land produced a bountiful harvest.
    He asked himself, ‘What shall I do,
    for I do not have space to store my harvest?’
    And he said, ‘This is what I shall do:
    I shall tear down my barns and build larger ones.
    There I shall store all my grain and other goods
    and I shall say to myself, “Now as for you,
    you have so many good things stored up for many years,
    rest, eat, drink, be merry!”’
    But God said to him,
    ‘You fool, this night your life will be demanded of you;
    and the things you have prepared, to whom will they belong?’
    Thus will it be for all who store up treasure for themselves
    but are not rich in what matters to God.”

    Herod the tetrarch heard of the reputation of Jesus

    and said to his servants, “This man is John the Baptist.
    He has been raised from the dead;
    that is why mighty powers are at work in him.”

    Now Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison

    on account of Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip,
    for John had said to him,
    “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
    Although he wanted to kill him, he feared the people,
    for they regarded him as a prophet.
    But at a birthday celebration for Herod,
    the daughter of Herodias performed a dance before the guests
    and delighted Herod so much
    that he swore to give her whatever she might ask for.
    Prompted by her mother, she said,
    “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”
    The king was distressed,
    but because of his oaths and the guests who were present,
    he ordered that it be given, and he had John beheaded in the prison.
    His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl,
    who took it to her mother.
    His disciples came and took away the corpse
    and buried him; and they went and told Jesus.

    Many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary

    to comfort them about their brother [Lazarus, who had died].
    When Martha heard that Jesus was coming,
    she went to meet him;
    but Mary sat at home.
    Martha said to Jesus,
    “Lord, if you had been here,
    my brother would not have died.
    But even now I know that whatever you ask of God,
    God will give you.”
    Jesus said to her,
    “Your brother will rise.”
    Martha said to him,
    “I know he will rise,
    in the resurrection on the last day.”
    Jesus told her,
    “I am the resurrection and the life;
    whoever believes in me, even if he dies, will live,
    and anyone who lives and believes in me will never die.
    Do you believe this?”
    She said to him, “Yes, Lord.
    I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God,
    the one who is coming into the world.”

  • Thursday July 28, 2022 | Matthew 13:47-53

    Jesus said to the disciples:

    “The Kingdom of heaven is like a net thrown into the sea,
    which collects fish of every kind.
    When it is full they haul it ashore
    and sit down to put what is good into buckets.
    What is bad they throw away.
    Thus it will be at the end of the age.
    The angels will go out and separate the wicked from the righteous
    and throw them into the fiery furnace,
    where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.”

    “Do you understand all these things?”

    They answered, “Yes.”
    And he replied,
    “Then every scribe who has been instructed in the Kingdom of heaven
    is like the head of a household who brings from his storeroom
    both the new and the old.”
    When Jesus finished these parables, he went away from there.

    Jesus said to his disciples:

    "The Kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field,
    which a person finds and hides again,
    and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
    Again, the Kingdom of heaven is like a merchant
    searching for fine pearls.
    When he finds a pearl of great price,
    he goes and sells all that he has and buys it."

    Then dismissing the crowds, he went into the house.

    His disciples approached him and said,
    “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”
    He said in reply, “He who sows good seed is the Son of Man,
    the field is the world, the good seed the children of the Kingdom.
    The weeds are the children of the Evil One,
    and the enemy who sows them is the Devil.
    The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
    Just as weeds are collected and burned up with fire,
    so will it be at the end of the age.
    The Son of Man will send his angels,
    and they will collect out of his Kingdom
    all who cause others to sin and all evildoers.
    They will throw them into the fiery furnace,
    where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.
    Then the righteous will shine like the sun
    in the Kingdom of their Father.
    Whoever has ears ought to hear.”

  • Monday July 25, 2022 | Matthew 20:20-28

    The mother of the sons of Zebedee approached Jesus with her sons

    and did him homage, wishing to ask him for something.
    He said to her,
    “What do you wish?”
    She answered him,
    “Command that these two sons of mine sit,
    one at your right and the other at your left, in your Kingdom.”
    Jesus said in reply,
    “You do not know what you are asking.
    Can you drink the chalice that I am going to drink?”
    They said to him, “We can.”
    He replied,
    “My chalice you will indeed drink,
    but to sit at my right and at my left, this is not mine to give
    but is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”
    When the ten heard this,
    they became indignant at the two brothers.
    But Jesus summoned them and said,
    “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them,
    and the great ones make their authority over them felt.
    But it shall not be so among you.
    Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant;
    whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave.
    Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served
    but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.”

  • Sunday July 24, 2022 | Luke 11:1-13

    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."

    And he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend
    to whom he goes at midnight and says,
    'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
    for a friend of mine has arrived at my house from a journey
    and I have nothing to offer him,'
    and he says in reply from within,
    'Do not bother me; the door has already been locked
    and my children and I are already in bed.
    I cannot get up to give you anything.'
    I tell you,
    if he does not get up to give the visitor the loaves
    because of their friendship,
    he will get up to give him whatever he needs
    because of his persistence.

    "And I tell you, ask and you will receive;
    seek and you will find;
    knock and the door will be opened to you.
    For everyone who asks, receives;
    and the one who seeks, finds;
    and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
    What father among you would hand his son a snake
    when he asks for a fish?
    Or hand him a scorpion when he asks for an egg?
    If you then, who are wicked,
    know how to give good gifts to your children,
    how much more will the Father in heaven
    give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"
