Saturday 22nd Week of Ordinary Time

 Fools for Christ. 1 Cor. 4:6-15





Do not think the world will praise you for being a good Christian.
Even if you truly practice your Faith,
The world will hate you all the more.

The world instead will think you are a fool for following Christ.

Christians believe in being poor in Spirit
And turning the other cheek.

When ridiculed they bless;
When persecuted, they endure;
When slandered, they respond with gentleness;
They are the world’s rubbish,
The scum of all. 1Cor. 4:10-15

This all sounds pretty foolish.

But being a fool for Christ
In the end Is probably the smartest thing a person could ever be.
