Ebanghelyo subong nga Adlaw (Mateo 9:35-10:1,6-8)
Naglibot si Jesus sa mga banwa kag mga baryo, kag nagpanudlo siya sa mga simbahan sang mga Judio. Ginwali niya ang Maayong Balita parte sa paghari sang Dios, kag ginpang-ayo niya ang mga tawo nga may nagkalain-lain nga mga balatian.
Pagkakita niya sa madamo nga mga tawo, naluoy gid siya sa ila tungod nga madamo ang ila mga palaligban pero wala sing may nagabulig sa ila. Kaangay sila sang mga karnero nga wala sing manugbantay.
Gani nagsiling siya sa iya mga sumulunod, "Malapad ang alanihon, pero diutay gid lang ang manug-ani.
Gani magpangamuyo kamo sa Ginoo nga magpadala siya sang mga manug-ani sa iya alanihon." mga tawo nga naaman sa pagbaton sang Maayong Balita. Kaangay sila sang alanihon nga husto na gid anihon.
Gintawag ni Jesus ang iya dose ka mga sumulunod kag ginhatagan niya sila sing gahom sa pagtabog sang malaot nga mga espiritu. Ginhatagan man niya sila sang gahom sa pag-ayo sang bisan ano nga klase sang balatian.
Kundi kadtui ninyo ang mga kaliwat ni Israel. Kaangay sila sang mga karnero nga nagtalang.
Ibantala ninyo sa ila nga tion na ini nga ang Dios magahari sa mga tawo.
Ayuha ninyo ang mga masakiton, banhawa ninyo ang mga patay, ayuha ninyo ang mga aruon, kag tabuga ninyo ang malaot nga mga espiritu. Nakabaton kamo sa Dios nga wala sing bayad, gani maghatag man kamo nga wala sing bayad.
Prayers:
"Lord Jesus, rouse my spirit from complacency and stir my faith to see
you act today. Give me boldness to live and proclaim the message of the
kingdom of heaven and to be a prophetic sign of that kingdom to this
generation."

Reflection of the Daily Gospel:
Who doesn't want a life of good health, peace, and well-being? Isaiah foretold that God's kingdom would overcome sorrow and adversity and bring true peace and prosperity to God's people. Jesus understood his mission to bring the kingdom in all its fulness to us. The core of the gospel message is quite simple: the kingdom or reign of God is imminent! What is the kingdom of God? It's the power of God at work in that society of men and women who trust in God and who honor him as their King and Lord. In the Lord's prayer we dare to ask God to reign fully in our lives and in our world: "May your kingdom come and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven" (Matthew 5:10 ). Jesus' preaching of God's kingdom was accompanied by signs and wonders. People were healed not only spiritually, but physically as well. Do you believe in the power of God's kingdom for your life? Let his word transform your mind and heart that he may reign supreme in every area of your life.
Jesus commissioned his disciples to carry on the works which he did – to speak God's word and to bring his healing power to the weary and oppressed. Jesus said to his disciples: Freely you have received, freely give (Matthew 10:8). What they had received from Jesus (all free of charge) they must now pass on to others without expecting any kind of payment or reward. They must show by their attitude that their first interest is God, not material gain. Jesus' words are just as relevant today. The kingdom of heaven is available to those who are ready to receive it. We cannot buy heaven; but if we accept the love and mercy of Jesus we already possess heaven in our hearts! The Lord brings his kingdom or heavenly reign to those who receive him with faith and obedience. When the Lord returns in his glory he will fully restore his kingdom of everlasting peace and justice. Do you pray and watch with confident hope for God's kingdom to come in all its fullness?
