We Pray Let us pray that our faith will be renewed through God’s word. (pause) God of love and wisdom, Teach us to listen to your word, to reflect on your wisdom and act with compassion. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. We Respond A reading from the letter of St Paul to the Colossians (3:12-13) Brothers and sisters: God loves you and has chosen you as his own special people. So be gentle, kind, humble, meek, and patient. Put up with each other, and forgive anyone who does you wrong, just as Christ has forgiven you. The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Tuesday Week 23 Ordinary Time 9 September 2025 We Listen May the love of God guide our minds. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. We Go Forth So often we hear that we should forgive the people who hurt us. If we know this so well, why is it sometimes so hard to do? Watch this video, called What is Forgiveness, which looks at what happens to our minds when we are hurt, but shows how a loving response is always a choice that we can make. 160
