Amos 6:1-8 (MSG): Woe to those who live only for today, indifferent to the fate of others! [...]Woe to those addicted to feeling good - life without pain! those obsessed with looking good - life without wrinkles! They could not care less about their country going to ruin. 

all readings for the day:  Isaiah 12:2-6; Amos 6:1-8; 2 Corinthians 8:1-15

pray

Merciful God, who sent your messengers the prophets to preach repentance and prepare the way for our salvation: Give us grace to heed their warnings and forsake our sins, that we may greet with joy the coming of Jesus Christ our Redeemer; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.  Amen. (source)
