Today's Readings
Gospel: "As a result of this, many of his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him."

Joshua: “If it does not please you to serve the LORD, decide today whom you will serve, the gods your fathers served beyond the River or the gods of the Amorites in whose country you are now dwelling. As for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.”
The first reading today casts a ray of light on the Gospel from John. Those who adhere to Jesus remain with the truth Who surpasses them. Those who turn away choose one or another set of idols which they can grasp.
