“But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will: and will know, not the speech of them that are puffed up, but the power.”
Reflection for Today
Pause with 1 Corinthians 4:19. Hear these words again: “But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will: and will know, not the speech of them that are puffed up, but the power.”
1 Corinthians comes from the apostolic age, when the first communities were learning how to live the Gospel in ordinary struggles. The Church still listens here for guidance. Read in Catholic faith, this is not a decorative sentence for social media. It is a living word meant to convert, console, and send us back into ordinary life with a quieter heart.
If nothing else remains from this page, let one phrase of 1 Corinthians 4:19 remain. If possible, bring this line to Mass or to a brief visit before the Blessed Sacrament. Let Christ finish in silence what the verse began in your thoughts.
Prayer
Father of mercies, I bring You this day and this verse from 1 Corinthians 4:19. As I listen to “But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will: and will know, not the speech of…,” heal what is anxious in me, correct what is proud, and strengthen what is willing to love. Amen.
