February 6 - St. Paul Miki and Companions

Jesus said to his disciples: "You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house. Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father (Matthew 5:14-16).

When you serve others with joy and constancy you spread the light of Christ all around you. Never underestimate the power of doing good.

Mary, my Mother, you served others all the time. Encourage me to live in the same way.
