Description
July 5, 2020 - The enemy of the Body of Christ is constantly seeking to divide all of the beloved in the Body of Christ from one another and their God. For this reason, from our Matins Scripture reading, St. Paul writes in Philippians 1 that the Church should let their conduct be worthy of the Gospel by being one mind and one spirit in all things. And, from our Epistle reading, St. Peter in 1 Peter 5 we are told to submit to our spiritual Fathers and to one another in humility before our brothers and sisters in Christ; and we would keep watch vigilantly at all times for our enemy who is always seeking to hinder and destroy us. The Hebrew people in the Book of the Prophet Nehemiah faced this very situation as they were rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. Today our Lord calls us to take our place on the wall for the protection of ourselves and one another.
