The gospel reminds us that we who hear the Good News belong to the chosen ones. We have all been chosen to be sent. We all have been given special talents to build up the kingdom of God. Maybe we will not be sent to a foreign land but we can make a difference in the lives of our immediate family, friends and co-workers.
We can bring hope to those in despair or even heal a broken heart. Sometimes all we need is to take the time to listen and be willing to help.
We all have a mission, so whatever place we are in, let’s make a positive impact. A simple smile or sincere offer of help to the needy is a great place to start.
Do not be afraid and don’t be concerned if people reject us. They already rejected the ONE who sent us.
