June 28, 2026 Have a good day! ----- Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ----- ☆ Gospel: Matthew 10:37-42 He who has more love for his father or mother than for me is not good enough for me; he who has more love for son or daughter than for me is not good enough for me. And he who does not take his cross and come after me is not good enough for me. He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him. He who gives honour to you gives honour to me; and he who gives honour to me gives honour to him who sent me. He who gives honour to a prophet, in the name of a prophet, will be given a prophet's reward; and he who gives honour to an upright man, in the name of an upright man, will be given an upright man's reward. And whoever gives to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will not go without his reward. ----- ☆ 2 Kings 4:8-11, 14-16a Now there came a day when Elisha went to Shunem, and there was a woman of high position living there, who made him come in and have a meal with her. And after that, every time he went by, he went into her house for a meal. And she said to her husband, Now I see that this is a holy man of God, who comes by day after day. So let us make a little room on the wall; and put a bed there for him, and a table and a seat and a light; so that when he comes to us, he will be able to go in there. Now one day, when he had gone there, he went into the little room and took his rest there. So he said, What then is to be done for her? And Gehazi made answer, Still there is this, she has no son and her husband is old. Then he said, Send for her. And in answer to his voice she took her place at the door. And Elisha said, At this time in the coming year you will have a son in your arms. ----- ☆ Romans 6:3-4, 8-11 Or are you without the knowledge that all we who had baptism into Christ Jesus, had baptism into his death? We have been placed with him among the dead through baptism into death: so that as Christ came again from the dead by the glory of the Father, we, in the same way, might be living in new life. But if we are dead with Christ, we have faith that we will be living with him; Having knowledge that because Christ has come back from the dead, he will never again go down to the dead; death has no more power over him. For his death was a death to sin, but his life now is a life which he is living to God. Even so see yourselves as dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus. ----- ◇ Daily Readings June 28, 2026 https://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/062826.cfm ☆ The Bible in Basic English BBE https://www.biblestudytools.com/bbe/ ◇ The Holy Bible[King James Version] https://www.wordproject.org/bibles/kj/index.htm ◇ Abiding Radio Instrumental (BGM) https://www.abidingradio.org/listen/ -----
