Because you belong to Christ

“Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward.” (MK 9: 41)

Even the smallest gesture, like someone who gives “a cup of water to drink because we belong to Christ, will not lose his reward.” This is how Our Lord takes care of us. He made us so close to Him that He identified Himself with us—what an honor and grace for us.

“Receive the word of God, not as the word of men, but as it truly is, the word of God.” (Gospel Acclamation)
