Reading : St. James 1 : 12-18 “Happy the person who stands firm when trials come. He will prove himself/herself, and will receive the crown of life that the Lord promises those who have him.”
Psalm 93 v.18,19 : “When I think I have lost my foothold, your mercy, Lord, holds me up. When cares increase in my heart your consolation calms my soul.”
Gospel : Mark 8 : 14-21 Jesus was speaking about the yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod, the disciples were on a different wavelength until Jesus words; “Why are you talking about having no bread ? Do you not understand ? Have you no perception. Are your minds closed ? Have you eyes that do no see ? Ears that do not hear ? Or do you not remember ? When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of scraps did you collect ? They answered twelve.”
