To rouse one another

“We must consider how to rouse one another to love and good works.” (Heb 10: 24)

We can motivate or demotivate one another; we can “consider how to rouse one another” or discourage one another. We can do both, but God remind us: “we MUST consider how to rouse” because of the goal—“to love and good works.” Every day God’s word does the same for us: inspires us to love and good works. We can do it for our brothers and sisters—“to rouse one another.”

“A lamp to my feet is your word, a light to my path.” (Gospel Acclamation)
