Daily Gospel for November 30. Matthew 4:18-22.

Daily readings Monday, Gospel for November 30 (Following Jesus has many implications and detachment and is worth it all): At that time, as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, who was called Peter, and his brother Andrew; they were making a cast in the lake with their net, for they were fishermen. And he said to them, "Follow me and I will make you fishers of men." And they left their nets at once and followed him. Going on from there he saw another pair of brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John; they were in their boat with their father Zebedee, mending their nets, and he called them. At once, leaving the boat and their father, they followed him.". (The daily readings and the Holy Gospel, on this page, are from the Jerusalem Bible)

Daily Readings reflection, by Pope Francis.

"Pope Francis: Letting go of something to follow God."

In the daily Readings, in the case of the Apostles, the Lord went through their lives with a miracle. But Jesus does not always pass before us or within us with a miracle, and yet he always makes himself felt.

When the Lord comes into our life, when he passes through our heart, he always says a word to you and also this promise: "Go ahead courage, do not fear, for you, will do this". It is an invitation to mission, an invitation to follow Him. And when we feel this second moment, we see that there is something in our life that is not going, that we must correct, and we leave it, with generosity.

Or even if there is something good in our life, but the Lord inspires us to leave it, to follow him more closely, as has happened here: these have left everything, says the Gospel. "And when the boats were pulled to land, they left everything: boats, nets, everything And they followed him".

However, through daily reading, Jesus does not ask that all be left for an end that remains dark to those who have chosen to follow him. On the contrary, the goal is immediately declared and is a dynamic goal. Jesus never says "Follow me" without saying the mission. No. Follow me and I will do this to you. Follow me, for this. If you want to be perfect, stop and follow to be perfect. Always the mission.

We go the way of Jesus to do something. It is not a show to go the way of Jesus. We go after Him, to do something: it´s the mission. Promise, request, mission. These three moments have to do not only with active life, but also with prayer. Meanwhile, a prayer without a word from Jesus and without trust, without a promise, is not a good prayer.

Second, it is good to ask Christ to be ready to leave something and this predisposes to the third moment because there is no prayer in which Jesus does not inspire something to do. It is a true Christian prayer to feel the Lord with his Word of comfort, of peace and of promise; to have the courage to divest ourselves of something that prevents us from quickly following him and taking up the mission.

This does not mean that there are no temptations afterwards. There will be so many. But, look, Peter sinned gravely, denying Jesus, but then the Lord forgave him. James and John, they sinned in their desire to make a career, wanting to go higher, but the Lord forgave them. (Daily Readings reflection, Saint Martha, September 5, 2013.).

Daily Prayer Monday, for Gospel.

My Lord, I want to respond to your call, to abandon all distractions to give everything for your love, to love you and to follow in your footsteps. I want to leave behind the things that prevent me from choosing all the good that You bring me. I want to leave those nets that hold me prisoner of my fears and that do not let me act in freedom. Dispel my weaknesses. Amen. (Healing with the serenity prayer for daily readings and Holy Gospel)
