Today’s readings help us to ask

ourselves two potentially

life-changing questions...

#1: “What do you treasure?”

Of course we treasure our faith, our family and our friendships. But Jesus tells us in the Gospel from Luke how we can discover the real answer to this question: “For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.” To bring to light what we truly treasure in life, we can each ask ourselves, “Where do I spend the majority of my energy? Where do I find my thoughts dwelling? How do I choose to spend my time when I find myself with a few spare moments? What do my spending habits reveal about what is important to me?”

#2: “What would you do if you were not afraid?” To put it another way, “What would you do if you had radical faith in God?”

Consider the faith shown by Abraham as recapped in our Second Reading. Abraham was a senior citizen when he received the crazy invitation from God to take his entire household and head out to an unknown destination. He was an elderly man with an elderly wife and no heirs when God promised to give him countless descendants.

Putting his faith in God, Abraham rose above all the fears and doubts he may have had and set out, following God’s call to him “for he thought that the one who had made the promise was trustworthy.” In the Gospel, Jesus tells us plainly, “Do not be afraid any longer, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.” What would our lives look like if we lived unafraid ... if we had the kind of radical faith that Abraham showed in ancient days?

What ministry might I join? How can I share my faith? What changes can I make to be more present for my family?

What is the risk God is asking me to take as an act of faith in Him? How can I show gratitude for all God has given me?

Interfaith Vigil in Solidarity and Honor

A prayer vigil will be offered in front of the Thompson Federal

Building in Reno on Monday, August 12 at 5:30 pm, for all victims of gun violence, in particular those who were wounded or have died in the 8 mass shootings in the past 12 months. Seventy-nine innocent lives have been taken, in addition to the lives of the shooters. The causes vary and are complex but surely involve hatred, mental illness and extremism. All are welcome to this time of prayer in solidarity with all who are injured and have lost loved ones and in demonstration of mutual respect and honor for human life.
