Year B - Wednesday of the Twenty-Sixth Week in Ordinary Time (Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels)

In Catholic Lectionary Today's readings:

• 👼 First reading: Exodus 23:20-23
• 📖 Gospel: Matthew 18:1-5, 10 ✨👶

🌟 On this Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels, we are reminded of the constant presence of angels, sent by God to guard and guide us. In the First Reading, God promises an angel to protect the Israelites on their journey, assuring them of divine guidance and protection. This reflects the role of guardian angels in our own lives, watching over us and leading us along the right path. 👼✨

👶 In the Gospel, Jesus places a child in the midst of His disciples, teaching them that the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven are those who humble themselves like children. He emphasizes the care that guardian angels provide, saying that these angels constantly behold the face of the Father. This highlights both our call to humility and the heavenly protection we receive as God's children. 🌟🙏

💖 Today, as we reflect on the care of our guardian angels, let us trust in their guidance and protection. We are invited to embrace the humility and innocence of a child, knowing that God’s angels are ever-present, guiding us closer to Him. ✨👼💖
