恭讀聖馬爾谷福音 3:1-6
那時候，耶穌進了會堂，在那裏有一個人，他的一隻手枯乾了。法利塞人窺察耶穌是否在安息日治好那人，好去控告他。耶穌對那有一隻手枯了的人說：「起來，站在中間！」遂對法利塞人說：「安息日許行善呢，或作惡呢？許救命呢，或害命呢？」他們一聲不響。耶穌遂含怒環視他們，見他們的心硬而悲傷，就對那人說：「伸出手來！」他一伸，他的手就復原了。法利塞人一出去，立刻便與黑落德黨人作陷害耶穌的商討，為除滅他。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark 3:1-6
1 Again he entered the synagogue, and a man was there who had a withered hand. 2 And they watched him, to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse him. 3 And he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Come here.” 4 And he said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent. 5 And he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored. 6 The Pharisees went out, and immediately held counsel with the Hero’di-ans against him, how to destroy him.

「事故莫淆爾志，患難莫擾爾衷，天主常存不變，萬般轉眼成空。」聖女大德蘭
今年苦修院出版的畫冊，刊登了以上聖女的金句，很喜歡，就將它放在家中的書桌前，每日給自己的溫馨提示﹗
聖女看破了世事的光怪陸離，變幻無常，惟有天主可依可靠，故此，鼓勵別人勿讓世物患難擾亂心志，失掉愛主榮主之情﹗
跟隨主的人，有否如神父所說的具有那份「勇氣」，去維護真理、保存正義，讓主的旨意臨現人間﹖即使付出代價。
祈求聖神的充滿，賜予智慧，在適當的時候，講適當的話，做適當的事，以光榮在天大父﹗
