And he also said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear. In the measure you give,
so shall you receive, and still more will be given to you. For to the one who produces
something, more will be given, and from him who does not produce anything, even
what he has will be taken away from him.”
REFLECTION:
We sometimes suppress the light of our good works for fear that it would
attract undue attention or it would puff up our sense of pride. But good works
cannot be hidden for a long time. Its good effects will be noticed sooner or later.
Perhaps it is part of doing good works that we suffer the martyrdom of attention.
We need to understand that we are just mere instruments and if our good works will
give praise to God, then that forms part of our task as servants.
