Ordinary Time – Year C

First Reading
Habakkuk 1:2-3, 2:2-4
2 Then Yahweh answered
me and said, 'Write the vision down, inscribe it on tablets to be easily read.
3 For the vision is for
its appointed time, it hastens towards its end and it will not lie; although it
may take some time, wait for it, for come it certainly will before too long.
4 'You see, anyone
whose heart is not upright will succumb, but the upright will live through
faithfulness.'
“The
Word of the Lord”
PSALMS 95:1-2, 6-7,
8-9
1 Come, let us cry out
with joy to Yahweh, acclaim the rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come into his
presence with thanksgiving, acclaim him with music.
6 Come, let us bow low
and do reverence; kneel before Yahweh who made us!
7 For he is our God,
and we the people of his sheepfold, the flock of his hand. If only you would
listen to him today!
8 Do not harden your
hearts as at Meribah, as at the time of Massah in the desert,
9 when your ancestors
challenged me, put me to the test, and saw what I could do!
Second Reading
2 TIMOTHY 1:6-8,
13-14
6 That is why I am
reminding you now to fan into a flame the gift of God that you possess through
the laying on of my hands.
7 God did not give us a
spirit of timidity, but the Spirit of power and love and self-control.
8 So you are never to
be ashamed of witnessing to our Lord, or ashamed of me for being his prisoner;
but share in my hardships for the sake of the gospel, relying on the power of
God
13 Keep as your pattern
the sound teaching you have heard from me, in the faith and love that are in
Christ Jesus.
14 With the help of the
Holy Spirit who dwells in us, look after that precious thing given in trust.

Word of the Lord”
Gospel Reading
LUKE 17:5-10
5 The apostles said to
the Lord, 'Increase our faith.'
6 The Lord replied, 'If
you had faith like a mustard seed you could say to this mulberry tree, "Be
uprooted and planted in the sea," and it would obey you.
7 'Which of you, with a
servant ploughing or minding sheep, would say to him when he returned from the
fields, "Come and have your meal at once"?
8 Would he not be more
likely to say, "Get my supper ready; fasten your belt and wait on me while
I eat and drink. You yourself can eat and drink afterwards"?
9 Must he be grateful
to the servant for doing what he was told?
10 So with you: when you
have done all you have been told to do, say, "We are useless servants: we
have done no more than our duty." '
