## Readings of the day

- Epistle

  1 Thessalonians 2:1–8

  **Show the text**

  1 For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,

  2 but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.

  3 For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.

  4 But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak: not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.

  5 For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is witness),

  6 nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.

  7 But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.

  8 Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you, not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.

- Gospel

  Luke 9:44–50

  **Show the text**

  44 “Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men.”

  45 But they didn’t understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

  46 An argument arose among them about which of them was the greatest.

  47 Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,

  48 and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least among you all, this one will be great.”

  49 John answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow with us.”

  50 Jesus said to him, “Don’t forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”
