Speaking Our Minds...

4th Sunday Ord. Time - Year B.

Speaking Our Minds...

Most people do not hesitate to speak their minds when the occasion calls for it. Parents, for instance unhesitatingly correct their children. Husbands and wives peak out whenever the welfare of the other is concerned. Friends do the same. Of course it is easy, and still, much good can come from doing so, to speak our minds. We take such daily "speaking out" in stride.  However, this is not the case when it comes to speaking out in God's name; we almost forget our prophetic calling which we received during baptism. This Sunday's readings remind us of this solemn heritage. How do you feel about "speaking your mind"? As a prophet, what makes you exercise your heritage?
