November 12, 2026 Have a good day! ----- Memorial of Saint Josaphat, Bishop and Martyr ----- ☆ Gospel: Luke 17:20-25 Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/Luke_17_20-25 And when the Pharisees put questions to him about when the kingdom of God would come, he gave them an answer and said, The kingdom of God will not come through observation: And men will not say, See, it is here! or, There! for the kingdom of God is among you. And he said to his disciples, The time will come when you will have a great desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, but you will not see it. And if they say to you, See, it is there! or, It is here! do not go away, or go after them. For as in a thunderstorm the bright light is seen from one end of the sky to the other, so will the Son of man be when his time comes. But first, he will have to undergo much and be put on one side by this generation. ----- ☆ Philemon 7-20 Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/Philemon_7-20 For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother. And so, though I might, in the name of Christ, give you orders to do what is right, Still, because of love, in place of an order, I make a request to you, I, Paul, an old man and now a prisoner of Christ Jesus: My request is for my child Onesimus, the child of my chains, Who in the past was of no profit to you, but now is of profit to you and to me: Whom I have sent back to you, him who is my very heart: Though my desire was to keep him with me, to be my servant in the chains of the good news, in your place: But without your approval I would do nothing; so that your good works might not be forced, but done freely from your heart. For it is possible that for this reason he was parted from you for a time, so that you might have him for ever; No longer as a servant, but more than a servant, a brother, very dear to me specially, but much more to you, in the flesh as well as in the Lord. If then you take me to be your friend and brother, take him in as myself. If he has done you any wrong or is in debt to you for anything, put it to my account. I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life. So brother, let me have joy of you in the Lord: give new life to my heart in Christ. ----- ◇ Daily Readings November 12, 2026 https://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/111226.cfm ◇ Abiding Radio Instrumental (BGM) https://www.abidingradio.org/listen/ -----
