Lk 10:1-9
After this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to come. And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest. Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs in the midst of wolves. Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; and salute no one on the road. Whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house!’ And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest upon him; but if not, it shall return to you. And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer deserves his wages; do not go from house to house. Whenever you enter a town and they receive you, eat what is set before you; heal the sick in it and say to them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’

It’s time to take back your life.
It’s time to slow down to the speed of joy.
All revolutions have a moment when they begin. This is your moment.

Step Up Your Evangelization
What jumps out at you today? Jesus has sent the 70 ahead of him now, two by two, to go everywhere he's going, to prepare the way. And we're called to prepare his way into people's hearts, into people's lives. And that can be challenging. That can be perplexing. That can be frustrating. That can be many, many things. The important thing in that, I think, is for us not to give up, for us not to quit. And if someone's resistant, well, the only way you might be able to prepare the way for God to come into that person's heart or life is by praying for that person. But let's think today about how God is calling us to prepare the way for Him to come into people's lives, to come into their hearts, into their minds. And let's step up our efforts to evangelize in that way.
Have a great day, and remember, Be Bold, Be Catholic.
