FEAST OF ST LUKE, EVANGELIST

2 Timothy 4:10-17; Ps 145; Luke 10:1-9

Having a bad day

St Paul was out of sorts – grumpy, even -- when he wrote today’s section of the letter to Timothy. All of us have a right to have a bad day now and again. And as with Paul, ‘the Lord stands by us and gives us power’. The Gospel reading reminds us to rely on the Lord in whatever effort we make to live and preach the Good News.
