DAVID and...sabbath

This week's readings have centred around Samuel finding a new king to replace Saul.

God chooses David to be the one to lead HIS people. David loves God very much, but was also a big sinner. The relationship challenges on fidelity with God.

For reflection... how sincerely faithful are we to God?

In the gospel of Mark, the question of the sabbath arises. Jesus tries to teach us that sabbath is for us, not us for the sabbath. In other words, we should not follow our church rituals blindly.

So another reflection...are we guilty of being to "black and white" with our rituals?
