제1독서
갈라티아서 2,1-2.7-14
형제 여러분, 1 십사 년 뒤에 나는 바르나바와 함께
티토도 데리고 예루살렘에 다시 올라갔습니다.
2 나는 계시를 받고 그리로 올라갔습니다.
그리고 내가 다른 민족들에게 선포하는 복음을
그곳 주요 인사들에게 따로 설명하였습니다.
내가 지금 하고 있는 일이나 전에 한 일이
허사가 되지 않게 하려는 것이었습니다.
7 그들은 오히려 베드로가 할례 받은 이들에게 복음을 전하는 일을 위임받았듯이,
내가 할례 받지 않은 이들에게 복음을 전하는 일을
위임받았다는 사실을 알게 되었습니다.
8 할례 받은 이들을 위하여 베드로에게 사도직을 수행하게 해 주신 분께서,
나에게도 다른 민족들을 위한 사도직을 수행하게 해 주셨기 때문입니다.
9 그리고 교회의 기둥으로 여겨지는 야고보와 케파와 요한은
하느님께서 나에게 베푸신 은총을 인정하고,
친교의 표시로 나와 바르나바에게 오른손을 내밀어 악수하였습니다.
그리하여 우리는 다른 민족들에게 가고
그들은 할례 받은 이들에게 가기로 하였습니다.
10 다만 우리는 가난한 이들을 기억하기로 하였고,
나는 바로 그 일을 열심히 해 왔습니다.
11 그런데 케파가 안티오키아에 왔을 때 나는 그를 정면으로 반대하였습니다.
그가 단죄받을 일을 하였기 때문입니다.
12 야고보가 보낸 사람들이 오기 전에는 다른 민족들과 함께 음식을 먹더니,
그들이 오자 할례 받은 자들을 두려워한 나머지
몸을 사리며 다른 민족들과 거리를 두기 시작하였던 것입니다.
13 나머지 유다인들도 그와 함께 위선을 저지르고,
바르나바까지도 그들과 함께 위선에 빠졌습니다.
14 그러나 나는 그들이 복음의 진리에 따라 올바른 길을 걷지 않는 것을 보고,
모든 사람 앞에서 케파에게 말하였습니다.
“당신은 유다인이면서도 유다인으로 살지 않고 이민족처럼 살면서,
어떻게 이민족들에게는 유다인처럼 살라고 강요할 수가 있다는 말입니까?”
복음
루카 11,1-4
1 예수님께서 어떤 곳에서 기도하고 계셨다.
그분께서 기도를 마치시자 제자들 가운데 어떤 사람이,
“주님, 요한이 자기 제자들에게 가르쳐 준 것처럼,
저희에게도 기도하는 것을 가르쳐 주십시오.” 하고 말하였다.
2 예수님께서 그들에게 이르셨다.
“너희는 기도할 때 이렇게 하여라.
‘아버지
아버지의 이름을 거룩히 드러내시며
아버지의 나라가 오게 하소서.
3 날마다 저희에게 일용할 양식을 주시고
4 저희에게 잘못한 모든 이를 저희도 용서하오니
저희의 죄를 용서하시고
저희를 유혹에 빠지지 않게 하소서.’”

Wednesday of the Twenty-seventh Week in Ordinary Time
Reading 1
Brothers and sisters:
After fourteen years I again went up to Jerusalem with Barnabas,
taking Titus along also.
I went up in accord with a revelation,
and I presented to them the Gospel that I preach to the Gentiles–
but privately to those of repute–
so that I might not be running, or have run, in vain.
On the contrary,
when they saw that I had been entrusted with the Gospel to the uncircumcised,
just as Peter to the circumcised,
for the one who worked in Peter for an apostolate to the circumcised
worked also in me for the Gentiles,
and when they recognized the grace bestowed upon me,
James and Cephas and John,
who were reputed to be pillars,
gave me and Barnabas their right hands in partnership,
that we should go to the Gentiles
and they to the circumcised.
Only, we were to be mindful of the poor,
which is the very thing I was eager to do.
And when Cephas came to Antioch,
I opposed him to his face because he clearly was wrong.
For, until some people came from James,
he used to eat with the Gentiles;
but when they came, he began to draw back and separated himself,
because he was afraid of the circumcised.
And the rest of the Jews acted hypocritically along with him,
with the result that even Barnabas
was carried away by their hypocrisy.
But when I saw that they were not on the right road
in line with the truth of the Gospel,
I said to Cephas in front of all,
“If you, though a Jew,
are living like a Gentile and not like a Jew,
how can you compel the Gentiles to live like Jews?”
Responsorial Psalm
R. Go out to all the world, and tell the Good News.
Praise the LORD, all you nations,
glorify him, all you peoples!
R. Go out to all the world, and tell the Good News.
For steadfast is his kindness toward us,
and the fidelity of the LORD endures forever.
R. Go out to all the world, and tell the Good News.
Gospel
Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when he had finished,
one of his disciples said to him,
“Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples.”
He said to them, “When you pray, say:
Father, hallowed be your name,
your Kingdom come.
Give us each day our daily bread
and forgive us our sins
for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us,
http://onlineministries.creighton.edu/CollaborativeMinistry/daily.html
Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples. He said to them, "When you pray, say:
The Our Father or Lord's Prayer has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Because it is so familiar, I can easily recite the words without appreciating the meaning. A more intentional pace gives me the time and space to consider what Jesus wants me to hear in each petition. For example:
Father, hallowed be your name,
The Holy One, the Alpha and Omega, Protector, Teacher, Infinite Love
To disparage a name is to heap disgrace on the person represented by the name.
God, today I desire to honor and hold sacred your Name, that is above all names.
Creator, I desire to be conscious that my very existence depends on you.
Your Kingdom come.
God's Kingdom overflows with justice, mercy, peace, and reconciliation to all things.
Only God brings about the fullness of the Kingdom. My call is to co-create a tiny sliver within my unique context.
God, today I desire to cooperate with you to make visible the Kingdom to the least of my neighbors.
Give us each day our daily bread
Bread for everyone. Bread, clean water, a safe place to live, a nurturing community, meaningful work, and other essentials are each person's right. God longs for us to experience the "fullness of life."
God, I am grateful for the "bread" I have today.
God, as I pray these words, I recall those in our world without "enough," I ask that You help me provide the "bread" that is missing from others' tables.
and forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us,
To be forgiven, we first must forgive.
Part of our daily bread is our need for continual forgiveness and reconciliation with God.
God, I desire to cooperate in Your work, building a just, merciful, peaceful, and reconciled world.
God, I desire your grace to help me forgive everyone and everything.
and do not subject us to the final test."
We are dependent on God for all of our physical and spiritual needs. We can appeal to God (Father) for protection from anything threatening our life or relationship with God.
God, I humbly ask that you accompany me through any trials I encounter.
God, I ask you to open my eyes to the suffering of others and that I might accompany them.
Next time you recite the Lord's Prayer, what deeper meaning will you discover in and through the petitions?

PRAY MORE, MUCH MORE
“One day [Jesus] was praying in a certain place.” —Luke 11:1
“One of [Jesus’] disciples asked Him, ‘Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples’ ” (Lk 11:1). Jesus answered with a ‘Yes’ and a ‘No’: “Yes, I’ll teach you to pray.” “No, I won’t teach you as John taught his disciples.” Jesus teaches us not to imitate St. John’s disciples, pagans (Mt 6:8), or anyone else when we pray. We learn most things by imitation, but we cannot learn to pray this way.
Prayer is not primarily an activity but a relationship. Every relationship is unique. We learn to relate by relating, not by imitating. Likewise, we learn to pray by praying. Although we can learn some things about prayer from others, prayer is learned primarily by on-the-job training. Therefore, those who pray the most often pray the best. There’s no substitute for spending a lot of time with someone in building a deep, personal relationship. The Lord teaches us to pray by calling us to pray often, even for hours (e.g. Mk 1:35; Lk 6:12). Give the Lord both quality and quantity time, and He will teach you to pray.
Prayer: Father, give me the grace to stifle the flesh and stir up the spirit of prayer (Gal 5:17).
Promise: “Steadfast is His kindness toward us, and the fidelity of the Lord endures forever.” —Ps 117:2
Praise: In her diary, St. Faustina wrote, “Neither graces, nor revelations, nor raptures, nor gifts granted to a soul make it perfect, but rather the intimate union of the soul with God.”

Do you pray with joy and confidence? The Jews were noted for their devotion to prayer. Formal prayer was prescribed for three set times a day. And the rabbis had a prayer for every occasion. It was also a custom for rabbis to teach their disciples a simple prayer they might use on a regular basis. Jesus' disciples ask him for such a prayer. When Jesus taught his disciples to pray he gave them the disciple's prayer, what we call the Our Father or Lord's Prayer. (See longer version in Matthew 6:9-13).
God treats us as his own sons and daughters
What does Jesus' prayer tell us about God and about ourselves? First, it tells us that God is both Father in being the Creator and Author of all that he has made, the first origin of everything and transcendent authority, and he is eternally Father by his relationship to his only Son who, reciprocally is Son only in relation to his Father (Matthew 11:27). All fatherhood and motherhood is derived from him (Ephesians 3:14-15). In Jesus Christ we are reborn and become the adopted children of God (John 1:12-13; 3:3).
We can approach God confidently as a Father who loves us
Jesus teaches us to address God as "our Father" and to confidently ask him for the things we need to live as his sons and daughters. We can approach God our Father with confidence and boldness because Jesus Christ has opened the way to heaven for us through his death and resurrection. When we ask God for help, he fortunately does not give us what we deserve. Instead, he responds with grace and mercy. He is kind and forgiving towards us and he expects us to treat our neighbor the same.
We can pray with expectant faith and trust in the Father's goodness
We can pray with expectant faith because our heavenly Father truly loves each one of us and and he treats us as his beloved children. He delights to give us what is good. His love and grace transforms us and makes us like himself. Through his grace and power we can love and serve one another as Jesus taught - with grace, mercy, and loving-kindness.
Do you treat others as they deserve, or do you treat them as the Lord Jesus would with grace and mercy? Jesus' prayer includes an injunction (charge) that we must ask God to forgive us in proportion as we forgive those who have wronged us (Matthew 6:14-15). God's grace frees us from every form of anger, resentment, envy, and hatred. Are you ready to forgive others as the Lord Jesus forgives you?
Psalm 86:3-6,9-10
3 be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all the day.
4 Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5 For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call on you.
6 Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; hearken to my cry of supplication.
9 All the nations you have made shall come and bow down before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name.
10 For you are great and do wondrous things, you alone are God.
Daily Quote from the Early Church Fathers: The privilege and responsibility of calling God Father, by Cyril of Alexandria (376-444 AD)
"For the Savior said, 'When you pray, say, 'Our Father.' And another of the holy Evangelists adds, 'who art in heaven' (Matthew 6:9)... He gives his own glory to us. He raises slaves to the dignity of freedom. He crowns the human condition with such honor as surpasses the power of nature. He brings to pass what was spoken of old by the voice of the psalmist: 'I said, you are gods, and all of you children of the Most High' (Psalm 82:6). He rescues us from the measure of slavery, giving us by his grace what we did not possess by nature, and permits us to call God 'Father,' as being admitted to the rank of sons. We received this, together with all our other privileges, from him. One of these privileges is the dignity of freedom, a gift peculiarly befitting those who have been called to be sons. He commands us, therefore, to take boldness and say in our prayers, 'Our Father.'"(excerpt from COMMENTARY ON LUKE, HOMILY 71)
