The readings of the day and the responsorial psalm offer a very simple yet necessary challenge to all who claim to be close to God. In the first reading we see people of other nation and places demand the Israelites to lead them to Jerusalem because they believe that God is up there. They would have gone there themselves but they are aware that the Israelites are 'God-specialists'.
And that is what each one who believes in God is supposed to be: one who reflects God's presence in everyday life. All the more applicable to priests and religious who claim that God has called us specifically for this purpose!
