“I have not come to bring peace, but a sword…” (Mt 10:34)
Jesus reminds us that following Him may cause division—even within families—when our faith calls us to stand apart from worldly values. Yet, He also promises a reward for every act of kindness shown even in simple ways.

🕊️ Reflection: Are we brave enough to choose Christ when it costs us comfort or acceptance? Let’s welcome His call to faithfulness—even when it divides—and trust that every small act done in His name carries eternal significance.

“Fearless Belonging”

Jesus doesn’t sugarcoat discipleship. He reminds His Apostles—and us—that following Him means sharing in His trials. If He was misunderstood and maligned, we shouldn’t be surprised when we are too.

But here’s the grace: we belong to Him. And that belonging is stronger than fear.

He tells us not to be afraid—not of rejection, not of persecution, not even of death. Because our worth is known by the Father. Every sparrow, every hair, every whisper in the dark—He sees it all. And He holds us in that knowing.

To acknowledge Christ before others is to live boldly in the light. It’s to proclaim love, truth, and mercy from the housetops, even when the world calls us foolish. And in that witness, Jesus promises to stand with us before the Father.

Today we celebrate the feast of St. Benedict of Nursia, the Father of Western Monasticism and twin brother of our beloved patroness, St. Scholastica. Born in 480 AD, their lives were rooted in prayer, humility, and a deep love for Christ.

St. Benedict’s legacy lives on through his Rule, which shaped monastic life for centuries—and through his powerful prayer that still inspires hearts today:

“O Lord, I place myself in your hands and dedicate myself to you.
I pledge myself to do your will in all things…
To prefer nothing to the love of Christ.”
(Prayer of St. Benedict)

May we, like Benedict and Scholastica, seek holiness in the ordinary and trust God in all things.
