INTRODUCTION
Good morning dear brothers and sisters in Christ, today we celebrate Wednesday of the 29th Week in Ordinary Time, Year A.
FROM OUR FIRST READING
In our first reading today, we heard of the important reminders from the Apostle Paul to all of us the faithful people of God that we should not allow ourselves to be easily tempted and swayed by sin and all of its dangerous allures, all of which may end up leading us down into the wrong path, into our downfall and destruction. God has brought us out of our slavery and subjugation to sin, freed and delivered us from sin’s dangerous threats and control. But this does not mean that we are not going to face any trouble from sin anymore, as there are always those who wait all around us, seeking our destruction and downfall at all times.

FROM OUR GOSPEL READING
In our Gospel reading today, the Lord presented it plainly before His disciples and followers, that all of us must always be prepared and ready to follow Him, in all of our ways, and we must always be prepared, as at any moment, the Lord can indeed ask us to account for our actions and works, our activities and our failures to do what we are expected to do throughout our lives.
CONCLUSION
Dear friends in Christ, The Lord has clearly reminded all of us to keep ourselves and our lives pure and worthy so that we do not end up being caught unprepared and unworthy of God, and therefore may be bound for eternal damnation and Hell. We should always be active in living up to our Christian faith, committing ourselves to proclaim the Lord, our God, through our every actions, words and deeds, our interactions and works, as our holy predecessors, the holy saints of God, had done. May God bless our every good endeavours and efforts, now and always. Amen.
