Monday 22nd Week of Ordinary Time

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me. Lk. 4:16-30


There is the Spirit of the Lord and the spirit of the world. 

Which one is upon us. 


If the Spirit of the Lord is upon us we bring glad tidings to the poor. 

We proclaim liberty to captives;

Liberty to those who are imprisoned in loneliness, depression;

Or addictions or sins. 

We give sight to the blind who have lost their way and those who are burdened by life’s demands we help free them. 


Or is the Spirit of the world upon us?

A spirit of anxiety. 

Do we complain to others;

Do we point out the faults of others thus imprisoning them. 

Do we put burdens on other people’s shoulders?


There is a difference between the Spirit of the Lord and the spirit of the world. 

Which one is upon us?
