1st Reading – Habakkuk 1:2-3; 2:2-4
The prophet calls upon the Lord for help in the midst of suffering and misery.

One must have faith, the steadfast trust in God’s promises, in order to live.
Psalm – 95:1-2,6-9
“If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.”
With enduring faith, we worship and acclaim the Lord our God.
2nd Reading – 2nd Timothy 1:6-8,13-14
We “stir into flame the gift of God” when we bear hardship for the Gospel.
The Holy Spirit will help us remain faithful.

The Lord exhorts the Apostles to have faith like a mustard seed.
Faith is a normal response to our love for the Lord, and not an excuse for special rewards.
