    Letter of Paul to the Ephesians 6: 1 - 9

   Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for that is what is expected of you. "Honor your father and mother" is the first commandment to carry a promise with it - "That it may go well with you, and that you may have long life on the earth."

 Fathers, do not anger your children. Bring them up with the training and instruction befitting the Lord.

  Slaves, obey  your  human masters with the reverence, the awe, and the sincerity you owe to Christ. Do not render service for appearance only and to please men, but do God's will with your whole heart as slaves of Christ. Give you service willingly, doing it for the Lord rather than men. You know that each one, whether slave or free, will be repaid by the Lord for whatever good he does.

  Masters, act in a similar way toward your slaves. Stop threatening them.  Remember that you and they have a Master in heaven who plays no favorites.


Psalm 145: 10 - 14

  Let all your works give you thanks, O Lord, and let your faithful ones bless you. Let them discourse of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might, making known to men your might and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.  Your kingdom is a kingdom for all ages, and your dominion endures through all generations.

 The Lord is faithful in all his words and holy in all his works.  The Lord lifts up all who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down.


Gospel of Luke 13: 22 - 30

 Jesus went through cities and towns teaching - all the while making his way toward Jerusalem. Someone asked him, "Lord, are they few in number who are to be saved ?"  He replied:  "Try to come in through he narrow door. Many, I tell you, will try to enter and be unable. When once the master of the house has risen to lock the door and you stand outside knocking and saying, 'Sir, open for us,' he will say in reply, 'I do not know  where you  come from.'  Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your company.  You taught in our streets .'  But he will answer, 'I tell you, I do not know where you come from. Away from me, you evildoers!'

  There will be wailing and grinding of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets safe in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves rejected.  People will come from the east and the west, from the north and the south, and will take their place at the feast in the kingdom of God. Some who are last will be first and some who are first will be last."
