For those who don’t have a decent Bible or a book of the readings, here are two links that I use,

The Bible at Your Fingertips (http://st-luke-church.org/bible-at-finger-tips.php) and USCCB, The New American Bible (http://www.usccb.org/).  

The difference?  The first is Protestant more or less, and the second is officially Catholic and has the 12 little books in between the O.T. & N.T., called Deuterocanonical or Apocrypha. 

Both are good translations.

    Wisdom 12:  And you taught your people, by these deeds, that those who are just must be kind;
    and you gave your children good ground for hope that you would permit repentance for their sins.
    Romans 8:  The Spirit comes to the aid of our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes with inexpressible groanings.
    Matthew 13:  Jesus proposed another parable to the crowds, saying: “The kingdom of heaven may be likened to a man who sowed good seed in his field.  While everyone was asleep his enemy came and sowed weeds all through the wheat, and then went off.


    It’s easy to go through life grim and work oriented and predictable. But it’s ecstatic to go through life loving and laughing and applauding the present. “Celebration,” Jonathan Lockwood Huie says, “is its own road to happiness.”
