    A #DEEP Dive on the Gospel of Luke 2:22-40

    When the days were completed for their purification 
    according to the law of Moses, 
    They took him up to Jerusalem
    to present him to the Lord,
    just as it is written in the law of the Lord, 
    Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord, 
    and to offer the sacrifice of
    a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons, 
    in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord.

    Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon.
    This man was righteous and devout,
    awaiting the consolation of Israel, 
    and the Holy Spirit was upon him.
    It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit 
    that he should not see death 
    before he had seen the Christ of the Lord.
    He came in the Spirit into the temple; 
    and when the parents brought in the child Jesus 
    to perform the custom of the law in regard to him, 
    He took him into his arms and blessed God, saying:
    “Now, Master, you may let your servant go
    in peace, according to your word,
    for my eyes have seen your salvation,
    which you prepared in sight of all the peoples,
    a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
    and glory for your people Israel.”
    The child’s father and mother were amazed at what was said about him; 
    and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, 
    “Behold, this child is destined 
    for the fall and rise of many in Israel,
    and to be a sign that will be contradicted 
    —and you yourself a sword will pierce— 
    so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
    There was also a prophetess, Anna, 
    the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher.
    She was advanced in years, 
    having lived seven years with her husband after her marriage, 
    and then as a widow until she was eighty-four.
    She never left the temple, 
    but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer.
    And coming forward at that very time, 
    she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child 
    to all who were awaiting the redemption of Jerusalem. 

    When they had fulfilled all the prescriptions
    of the law of the Lord,
    they returned to Galilee,
    to their own town of Nazareth.
    The child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom; 
    and the favor of God was upon him.

    #DEEP 1178 - Freedom Friday by John Lawrence Barredo

    A #DEEP Reflection on the Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Luke 2:22-35


    22 And when the time came for their purification according to the law of Moses, they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord

    23 (as it is written in the law of the Lord, "Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord")

    24 and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord, "a pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons."

    25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

    26 And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

    27 And inspired by the Spirit he came into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law,

    28 he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said,

    29 "Lord, now let your servant depart in peace, according to your word;

    30 for my eyes have seen your salvation 31 which you have prepared in the presence of all peoples,

    32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to your people Israel."

    33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him;

    34 and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, "Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is spoken against

    35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed."

    #DEEP 1176 - Worry-less Wednesday by Christian Zepeda

    Feast of Saint John, Apostle and evangelist

    A #DEEP Dive on the Gospel of John 20:1a and 2-8

    On the first day of the week,
    Mary Magdalene ran and went to Simon Peter
    and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and told them,
    "They have taken the Lord from the tomb,
    and we do not know where they put him."
    So Peter and the other disciple went out and came to the tomb.
    They both ran, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter
    and arrived at the tomb first;
    he bent down and saw the burial cloths there, but did not go in.
    When Simon Peter arrived after him,
    he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there,
    and the cloth that had covered his head,
    not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place.
    Then the other disciple also went in,
    the one who had arrived at the tomb first,
    and he saw and believed.

    #DEEP 1175 - Terrific Tuesday by Allan Montano

    A #DEEP Dive on the Gospel of the Lord from the book of Matthew 10:17-22


    'Be prepared for people to hand you over to sanhedrins and scourge you in their synagogues. You will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, as evidence to them and to the gentiles. But when you are handed over, do not worry about how to speak or what to say; what you are to say will be given to you when the time comes, because it is not you who will be speaking; the Spirit of your Father will be speaking in you. 'Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; children will come forward against their parents and have them put to death. You will be universally hated on account of my name; but anyone who stands firm to the end will be saved.

    #DEEP 1171 - Freedom Friday by John Lawrence Barredo

    A #DEEP Reflection on the Book of Luke 1:46-56

    The Canticle of Mary.

    46 And Mary said: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;

    47 my spirit rejoices in God my savior.

    48 For he has looked upon his handmaid’s lowliness; behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed.

    49 The Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name.

    50 His mercy is from age to age to those who fear him.

    51 He has shown might with his arm, dispersed the arrogant of mind and heart.

    52 He has thrown down the rulers from their thrones but lifted up the lowly.

    53 The hungry he has filled with good things; the rich he has sent away empty.

    54 He has helped Israel his servant, remembering his mercy,

    55 according to his promise to our fathers, to Abraham and to his descendants forever.”

    56 Mary remained with her about three months and then returned to her home.

    #DEEP 1169 - Worryless Wednesday by Chok Guerra

    A #DEEP Dive on the Gospel of Luke 1:26-38

    In the sixth month,
    the angel Gabriel was sent from God
    to a town of Galilee called Nazareth,
    to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph,
    of the house of David,
    and the virgin's name was Mary.
    And coming to her, he said,
    "Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you."
    But she was greatly troubled at what was said
    and pondered what sort of greeting this might be.
    Then the angel said to her,
    "Do not be afraid, Mary,
    for you have found favor with God.
    Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son,
    and you shall name him Jesus.
    He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High,
    and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father,
    and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever,
    and of his Kingdom there will be no end."
    But Mary said to the angel,
    "How can this be,
    since I have no relations with a man?"
    And the angel said to her in reply,
    "The Holy Spirit will come upon you,
    and the power of the Most High will overshadow you.
    Therefore the child to be born
    will be called holy, the Son of God.
    And behold, Elizabeth, your relative,
    has also conceived a son in her old age,
    and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren;
    for nothing will be impossible for God."
    Mary said, "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord.
    May it be done to me according to your word."
    Then the angel departed from her.

    #DEEP 1167 - Awesome Monday by Erwin Alipio

    A #DEEP Dive on the Gospel of Matthew 1:18-25

    This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about.
    When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph,
    but before they lived together,
    she was found with child through the Holy Spirit.
    Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man,
    yet unwilling to expose her to shame,
    decided to divorce her quietly.
    Such was his intention when, behold,
    the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said,
    "Joseph, son of David,
    do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home.
    For it is through the Holy Spirit
    that this child has been conceived in her.
    She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus,
    because he will save his people from their sins."
    All this took place to fulfill
    what the Lord had said through the prophet:

    Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son,
    and they shall name him Emmanuel,
    which means "God is with us."
    When Joseph awoke,
    he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him
    and took his wife into his home.
    He had no relations with her until she bore a son,
    and he named him Jesus.

    A #DEEP Reflection on the Book of Isaiah 48:17-19


    17 Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: "I am the LORD your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you in the way you should go.

    18 O that you had harkened to my commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea;

    19 your offspring would have been like the sand, and your descendants like its grains; their name would never be cut off or destroyed from before me."

    #DEEP 1163 - Grateful Thursday by Jeanette Piamonte

    A #DEEP Dive on the Gospel of Matthew  11:11-15 Jesus said to the crowds:
    "Amen, I say to you,
    among those born of women
    there has been none greater than John the Baptist;
    yet the least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
    From the days of John the Baptist until now,
    the Kingdom of heaven suffers violence,
    and the violent are taking it by force.
    All the prophets and the law prophesied up to the time of John.
    And if you are willing to accept it,
    he is Elijah, the one who is to come.
    Whoever has ears ought to hear."
