WEDNESDAY WEEK 15 ORDINARY TIME 16 JULY 2025 A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew (6:28-33) Jesus said to his disciples: “Don’t worry and ask yourselves, ‘Will we have anything to eat? Will we have anything to drink? Will we have any clothes to wear?’ Only people who don’t know God are always worrying about such things. Your Father in heaven knows that you need all of these. But more than anything else, put God’s work first and do what he wants. Then the other things will be yours as well.” The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus assures us that we don’t need to worry! Listen together to this song by Ellie Holcomb called “Do Not Worry” . This is a joyful and reassuring song which reminds us that we are always cared for by the God who made everything. Let us pray that we will come with confidence to God in prayer. (pause) Help us, O Lord, to love you in all things and above all things and so to come to everlasting joy. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. May God grant us faith and peace. Amen. May God bless us in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. 121
