Disciples Follow the Small Calls

13th Sunday in Ordinary Time

The learning process never ends - we continue learning our whole life long.  Our life of faith is meant to grow our whole life long as well: "disciple" means "learner".  In our readings today God calls certain people to follow Him - the big call.  But we also see God asking daily favors of those who already follow him - the small calls.  As disciples of Jesus, God is calling us, in big ways and small, to deeper faith, to lives of service, to lives of prayer, to following these spontaneous and often inconvenient calls that bring about His Kingdom in our lives and on this earth.  What small calls does He have in store for you this week?
