SAMUEL ANSWERED THE CALL TO SERVE HIS PEOPLE AS THEIR PROPHET

God’s call is invariably a call to serve. It calls for a response, which must be freely given. In order for that response to be a positive one, two things are essential; willingness and generosity.

The characters in today’s readings namely: Samuel answered the call to serve his people as their prophet. Peter, Andrew and John too all answered the call to be fishers of men in their vocation as Apostles. We are also being called to be holy in reverence to our body as the temple of the Holy Spirit.

My dear beloved, are you willing to freely and generously answer this call to serve the people around you in your chosen vocation? Are you also ready to answer this call to holiness of life with your body?

I pray that like Samuel, Peter, Andrew and John, you too will answer freely with generosity of disposition to this call to serve in holiness of life which Christ calls us today as we begin the New Year!

Happy Sunday! Fadafido Cares!
