Saturday of the Twenty-fifth
week in Ordinary Time
Readings
Again I raised my eyes
and looked: there was a man with a measuring line in his hand. "Where are
you going?" I asked. "To measure Jerusalem," he answered;
"to see how great is its width and how great its length."
Then the angel who
spoke with me advanced, and another angel came out to meet him, and said to him, "Run, tell this to that
young man: People will live in Jerusalem as though in open country, because of
the multitude of men and beasts in her midst. But I will be for her an
encircling wall of fire, says the LORD, and I will be the glory in her
midst."
Sing and rejoice, O daughter Zion!
See, I am coming to dwell among you, says the LORD. Many nations shall join
themselves to the LORD on that day, and they shall be His people, and He will
dwell among you.
Hear the word of the LORD, O nations,
proclaim it on distant coasts, and say: He who scattered Israel, now gathers
them together, He guards them as a shepherd His flock.
The LORD shall ransom
Jacob, He shall redeem him from the hand of his conqueror.
Shouting, they shall
mount the heights of Zion, they shall come streaming to the LORD'S blessings:
The grain, the wine, and the oil, the sheep and the oxen; They themselves shall
be like watered gardens, never again shall they languish.
Then the virgins shall make merry and
dance, and young men and old as well. I will turn their mourning into joy, I
will console and gladden them after their sorrows.
While they were all amazed at His
every deed, He said to his disciples, "Pay attention to what I am telling
you. The Son of Man is to be handed over to men."
But they did not
understand this saying; its meaning was hidden from them so that they should
not understand it, and they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.

Dear Humanity,
I personally encourage everyone to emulate JESUS' values on LOVE, FAITH, HOPE
and CHARITY, as the humanity has been a failure; which resulted to the more than two (2) years of pandemic and its after-effects on economy, not only here in the Philippines but worldwide.
And the saddest part of it, is that, it affected the POOREST of the POOR to even extremely be more poorer, in exchange of the affluent to be more richer.
Thank you and may GOD bless you and the whole family to have an enjoyed life's journey at home, Church, schools/universities, corporate commitments, public and places of interest.
