Happy Father’s Day! Today’s readings put a whole new spin on “raising children.“
In the first reading, think of God as the Father and his Chosen People as His children. In this
reading we can learn a lot from how God sees the role of a FATHER. “If you harken to my
voice and keep my covenant, you shall be my special possession. “ This scripture refers to the
Mosaic Covenant where God supplies the Law, that is meant to govern and shape the people
of Israel, as they journey to the promised land.
