“These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold the Lord was standing upon a plastered wall, and in his hand a mason's trowel.”
Reflection for Today
Pause with Amos 7:7. Hear these words again: “These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold the Lord was standing upon a plastered wall, and in his hand a mason's trowel.”
In Amos, the prophetic word unsettles comfort and awakens hope. God loves His people enough to call them back, and enough to promise a future. 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.
As you hold this verse, do not force a dramatic feeling. Ask only for faithfulness. If the verse convicts you, do not panic. Take it to Confession when you can, or begin with an honest Act of Contrition tonight.
Prayer
Holy Trinity, I receive today's verse with the Church. Keep Amos 7:7 close to me. Let “These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold the Lord was standing upon a…” guard my thoughts from morning until night, and let my life quietly agree with Your word. Amen.
