HOMILY OF 29TH MONDAY IN ORDINARY TIME — YEAR B
HOMILY THEME: FOOL! THIS VERY NIGHT YOUR SOUL WILL BE DEMANDED OF YOU
BY: Fr Deotacious Chikontwe SMA
Eph 2:1-10; Psalm 99(100); Luke 12:13-21
FROM OUR FIRST READING
Our first reading, reminds us that salvation is a gift from God. We cannot earn it by doing good works or by trying to be perfect on our own. Instead, it is through faith in Jesus that we are saved. This teaches us to trust in God’s love and mercy, rather than relying on our own efforts.

LIFE LESSON FROM OUR FIRST READING
Dear friends, good works are important, but they come after faith. They are a way for us to show our love for God and others. When we do good things, we should remembered that we are doing them because God has been good to us first. Our good actions are a response to His grace.
FROM OUR GOSPEL READING
Our Gospel reading warns us that wealth and possessions do not last. Jesus tells a story about a man who stores up his riches, but it is all wasted because his life ends suddenly. This teaches us that money and material things are temporary and cannot give us lasting happiness.
LIFE LESSON FROM GOSPEL READING
It is easy to get caught up in wanting more things, the more money, more comfort, more security. But Jesus reminds us that life is more than this. We should not let greed or the pursuit of wealth take our focus away from what really matters. The things of this world are here today and gone tomorrow.
CONCLUSION
Jesus invites us to be “rich toward God.” This means putting our trust in Him, and seeking to live according to His will. If we build our lives on faith, love, and kindness, we are storing up treasures in heaven that will last forever.
