Repost from JR Medina's post in Bukas Palad Board

Sunday, 9 February 2014
5th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A)

Liturgical Color: Green

Readings

1R: Isaiah 58:7-10 2:3, 3
1. The Corporal Works of Mercy 
2. If you do these, then your light shall break forth like the dawn.
3. You shall call, and the Lord will answer. Your shall cry for help, and He will say, Here I am!
4. Then light shall rise for you in the darkness, and the gloom shall become for you like midday. 

RP:112 The just man is a light in darkness to the upright. OR Alleluia!

2R: In 1 Corinthians 2:1-5, Paul says that when he preaches, he does not do so through human wisdom, but on the power of God.
