Be single-hearted

Saturday of the 5th week of Eastertide

John 15:18-21

The Word of God continues to expand to Asia.  And in a dream, Paul met a Macedonian who pleaded, "Come across to Macedonia and help us."

St. Paul and his companions were fully convinced it was God who commanded them to go to Macedonia. 

In the Gospel, Jesus warns but at the same time encourages the apostles and disciples as well as us to be single-hearted in proclaiming the Good News and becoming worthy disciples.  These are the reminders of Jesus:

1. Don't be affected by adversaries - "You do not belong to this world", thus, you don't possess their disavalues.  Continue to adhere to a godly life.

2. Continue the life of a servant - happily serving his Master and treating him as such.

3.  Be open to mirror the Master - even in persecution, be faithful.\

This is who we are, unworthy servants and disciples of the Lord on the way to heaven!
