Today's Daily Readings provided by the Catholic News AgencyFirst Reading - Acts 20:17-2717And sending from Miletus to Ephesus, he called the ancients of the church. 18And when they were come to him, and were together, he said to them: You know from the first day that I came into Asia, in what manner I have been with you, for all the time, 19Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews; 20How I have kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have preached it to you, and taught you publicly, and from house to house, 21Testifying both to Jews and Gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. 22And now, behold, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there: 23Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem. 24But I fear none of these things, neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the word which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. 25And now behold, I know that all you, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more. 26Wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men; 27For I have not spared to declare unto you all the counsel of God. Posted on 21 May 2012 | 10:00 pm Psalm - Ps 68:10-11, 20-2110Thou shalt set aside for thy inheritance a free rain, O God: and it was weakened, but thou hast made it perfect. 11In it shall thy animals dwell; in thy sweetness, O God, thou hast provided for the poor. 20Blessed be the Lord day by day: the God of our salvation will make our journey prosperous to us. 21Our God is the God of salvation: and of the Lord, of the Lord are the issues from death. Posted on 21 May 2012 | 10:00 pm Gospel - Jn 17:1-11a1These things Jesus spoke, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said: Father, the hour is come, glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee. 2As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to all whom thou hast given him. 3Now this is eternal life: That they may know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. 4I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. 5And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with thee. 6I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou hast given me out of the world. Thine they were, and to me thou gavest them; and they have kept thy word. 7Now they have known, that all things which thou hast given me, are from thee: 8Because the words which thou gavest me, I have given to them; and they have received them, and have known in very deed that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. 9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me: because they are thine: 10And all my things are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them. 11And now I am not in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name whom thou has given me; that they may be one, as we also are. Posted on 21 May 2012 | 10:00 pm Provided by the Catholic News Agency |
