GOSPEL READING: MATTHEW 16:13-19

Leadership of the Church is given by Jesus to Peter. Leader of the Church should be firm like a rock. He should be willing to be the foundation stone: unnoticed and unrecognized. He should also be ready to carry the weight of the whole structure. He should also make sure that the netherworld (evil) does not overtake the Church.

All these are done to him only when he openly declares that Jesus is the Messiah and the only son of the living God. Only when Peter declared Jesus as Messiah, he is given the role of a leader. Faith of Peter and public acknowledgement of Peter about Jesus makes Peter the foundation of the Church.

பேதுருவின் நம்பிக்கை அவரது தலைமைத்துவதிற்கு அடித்தளமாகிறது. நம்பிக்கை கடவுளின் வெளிப்பாட்டை மையமாகக் கொண்டுள்ளது. அடித்தளம் என்ற முறையில் அவருடைய பொருப்புகளும் பணிகளும் தீயோனிடமிருந்து திருச்சபையைக் காப்பாற்றுவதே.

GOSPEL READING: LUKE 2:41-51

The heart of a mother is always for the child. She takes the child wherever she goes even if it be a long distance. The heart of the mother wants to be close to the child. The heart of the mother teaches the religion to the child (she takes him to practice their religious custom – she introduces the child to the religious custom).

The heart of the mother always searches for her child and if lost she goes after the child. She does not take the pains in her heart rather the child is in her heart and hence she goes after the child. The child is always brought back to her care and service. Whatever happens to the child is in the heart of the mother.

தாயின் இதயம் (உள்ளம்) குழந்தையை எப்போதும் தாங்கிக்கொள்ளும். குழந்தை எப்போதும் தன் அருகிலிருக்க விரும்புவார். குழந்தையை தன் பழக்கவழக்கத்தில் பழக்கி விடுவார். குழந்தைக்கு நடக்கும் எல்லா நிகழ்ச்சிகளையும் தன் இதயத்தில் வைத்திருப்பார்.
