November 2, 2026 Have a good day! ----- The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (All Souls) ----- ☆ Gospel: John 6:37-40 Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/John_6_37-40 Whatever the Father gives to me will come to me; and I will not send away anyone who comes to me. For I have come down from heaven, not to do my pleasure, but the pleasure of him who sent me. And this is the pleasure of him who sent me, that I am not to let out of my hands anything which he has given me, but I am to give it new life on the last day. This, I say, is my Father's pleasure, that everyone who sees the Son and has faith in him may have eternal life: and I will take him up on the last day. ----- ☆ Wisdom 3:1-6, 9 * Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/Wisdom_3_1-6_9 The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them. As gold in the furnace, he proved them, and as sacrificial offerings he took them to himself. In the time of their judgment they shall shine and dart about as sparks through stubble; They shall judge nations and rule over peoples, and the LORD shall be their King forever. Those who trust in him shall understand truth, and the faithful shall abide with him in love: Because grace and mercy are with his holy ones, and his care is with the elect. * https://bible.usccb.org/bible/wisdom/3?1 ----- ☆ Romans 8:31b-35, 37-39 Dramatic Reading https://hanamori.info/bible/en/Romans_8_31b-35_37-39 If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things? Who will say anything against the saints of God? It is God who makes us clear from evil; Who will give a decision against us? It is Christ Jesus who not only was put to death, but came again from the dead, who is now at the right hand of God, taking our part. Who will come between us and the love of Christ? Will trouble, or pain, or cruel acts, or the need of food or of clothing, or danger, or the sword? But we are able to overcome all these things and more through his love. For I am certain that not death, or life, or angels, or rulers, or things present, or things to come, or powers, Or things on high, or things under the earth, or anything which is made, will be able to come between us and the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ----- ◇ Daily Readings November 2, 2026 https://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/110226.cfm ◇ Abiding Radio Instrumental (BGM) https://www.abidingradio.org/listen/ -----
