Sorry so late...was out of town most of the day.
EPISTLE I John 3:13-18 Beloved: Do not be surprised, brothers, that the world hates you. We know that we have passed out of death into life, because we love the brothers. Whoever does not love abides in death. Everyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him. By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk, but in deed and in truth.
GRADUAL Ps. 119:1-2 In my distress I called to the Lord, and He answered me. V. O Lord, deliver me from lying lips and from a treacherous tongue.
Alleluia, alleluia! V. Ps. 7:2 O Lord, my God, in You have I placed my trust; save me from all my persecutors, and rescue me. Alleluia!
GOSPEL Luke 14:16-24 At that time, Jesus spoke to the Pharisees this parable: "A man once gave a great banquet and invited many. And at the time for the banquet he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, 'Come, for everything is now ready.' But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him, 'I have bought a field, and I must go out and see it. Please have me excused.' And another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to examine them. Please have me excused.' And another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.' So the servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house became angry and said to his servant, 'Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor and crippled and blind and lame.' And the servant said, 'Sir, what you commanded has been done, and still there is room.' And the master said to the servant, 'Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled. For I tell you, none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.' "
Beautiful TLM at the blog site.
And very moving art work and renderings. I can’t imagine where such beautiful art as that can even be found today, for hope to purchase.
Thanks for posting this and turning me onto the website.
Sure!
