1 Sm 16: 1-13/ Ps 89: 20. 21-22. 27-28/ Mk 2: 23-28
The Sabbath was made for man, not man for sabbath (Mk 2: 27)
Whenever we are moved by a desecrated statue of Jesus more than a road accident victim or a destitute along the road; whenever reciting prayers is more important than hearing the cries of the oppressed; whenever attending Sunday Mass becomes more important than visiting my sick neighbour or greeting my community member with a smile, the Lord reminds us: Sabbath is for man, not man for sabbath.
The glory of God is man fully alive (St Irenaeus)
