Second Sunday of Ordinary Time – Year A
Here I am Lord! I’m right over here waiting to find out what I need to do! Although we do not always use those words, we often feel we have to call out to God to let him know we are here.The Psalmist in the Scripture today gets excited about the call of the Lord. He has experienced the presence of God and wants to serve the Lord. We often want to feel the presence of God, but less often do we get excited about serving the Lord. Our own needs seem to be so many that we forget the call to serve.
