REFLECTION FOR TODAY
Charity is that with which no man is lost, and without which no man is saved.
-- St. Robert Bellarmine
READINGS FOR TODAY
First Reading: 2 Samuel 15:13-14, 30; 16:5-13
(David Flees from Jerusalem/ David and Shimei)
13 There came a messenger to David, saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom.
14 David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, Arise, and let us flee; for else none of us shall escape from Absalom: make speed to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring down evil on us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword.
30 David went up by the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered, and went barefoot: and all the people who were with him covered every man his head, and they went up, weeping as they went up.
Charity is that with which no man is lost, and without which no man is saved.
