Scripture, Reflection and Prayer for Wednesday, January 19, 2011

The Gospels are the heart of all the Scriptures "because they are our principal source for the life and teaching of the Incarnate Word, our Savior."
- CCC No. 125


Reflection: St. Jerome says, "Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ." This is especially true where the four Gospels are concerned. Every effort to know Christ better must include a deep familiarity with Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.


Prayer: Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, unfold for your people the mystery of your Word mad flesh through the sacred writings of the Evangelists.
