Daily Gospel - Wednesday, February 26, 2025 - Mark 9,38-40 - Catholic Bible

Welcome to our daily encounter with the Holy Scriptures! Today, we will reflect on the profound spiritual lessons contained in the First Reading (Ecclesiasticus 4,12-22) and in the Gospel (Mark 9,38-40). Each of these passages offers a unique reflection on the importance of divine wisdom, humility, and unity in the body of Christ.

First Reading (Eccl 4,12-22): The Book of Ecclesiasticus, also known as Sirácida, brings valuable teachings on how to live with wisdom and justice. In this excerpt, we find an exhortation to generosity, care for the poorest and the importance of cultivating wisdom as a precious asset. The author teaches us that true value lies in helping others, especially those in need, and that wisdom is more valuable than gold. Through these words, we are called to reflect on our attitude towards life, material wealth and care for others. Generosity and justice are central themes, reminding us that, in helping others, we are following Christ's example.

Gospel (Mark 9,38-40): The Gospel of Mark presents us with a powerful message of inclusion and acceptance. When John asks Jesus about a man who casts out demons in His name but does not follow them directly, Jesus responds simply and clearly: “He who is not against us is for us.” This passage teaches us the importance of working together in the Kingdom of God, regardless of the differences that may exist between us. Jesus' message is clear: we must welcome and support those who act in His name, even if they follow different paths. Unity in love and service to God is what really matters. As we reflect on this excerpt, we are called to consider how we can be more inclusive and accept differences within the Christian community, always with the aim of following God's will.

Final Reflection: Today, the readings invite us to think about how we live our faith on a daily basis, how we treat others and how we value the virtues that God offers us. We are called to generosity, justice, acceptance and union in Christ. May these words inspire us to live with more wisdom, humility and love, reflecting the true essence of the Gospel.
