  27. FIRST READING Isaiah55:1-9 CEV Come to the Lord, who is merciful R: The first reading for the third Sunday in Lent is written in chapter 55 of Isaiah, beginning at verse one.

  28. Isaiah55:1-9 The Lord says, If you are thirsty, come and drink water! If you don't have any money, come, eat what you want! Drink wine and milk without paying a cent. 2Why waste your money on what really isn't food? Why work hard for something that doesn't satisfy?

  29. Isaiah55:1-9 Listen carefully to me, and you will enjoy the very best foods. 3Pay close attention! • Come to me and live. I will promise you the eternal love and loyalty that I promised David. 4I made him the leader and ruler of the nations; he was my witness to them.

  30. Isaiah55:1-9 5You will call out to nations you have never known. And they have never known you, but they will come running because I am the LORD, the holy God of Israel, and I have honoured you.

  31. Isaiah55:1-9 6Turn to the LORD! He can still be found. Call out to God! He is near. 7Give up your crooked ways and your evil thoughts. Return to the LORD our God. He will be merciful and forgive your sins.

  32. Isaiah55:1-9 8The LORD says: "My thoughts and my ways are not like yours. 9Just as the heavens are higher than the earth, my thoughts and my ways are higher than yours. This is the Word of the Lord. C: Thanks Be to God.

  33. Psalm 63:1-8 CEV R: The Psalm is Psalm 63 1You are my God. I worship you. In my heart, I long for you, as I would long for a stream in a scorching desert. C:2I have seen your power and your glory in the place of worship.

  34. Psalm 63:1-8 CEV R:3Your love means more than life to me, and I praise you. C: 4As long as I live, I will pray to you.

  35. Psalm 63:1-8 CEV R: 5I will sing joyful praises and be filled with excitement like a guest at a banquet. C:6I think about you before I go to sleep, and my thoughts turn to you during the night.

  36. Psalm 63:1-8 CEV R: 7You have helped me, and I sing happy songs in the shadow of your wings. C: 8I stay close to you and your powerful arm supports me. Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit As it was in the beginning is now and will be for ever. Amen.

  37. SECOND READING 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 CEV Do not take God's grace for granted R: The second reading is written in chapter 10 of First Corinthians, beginning at verse one.

  38. SECOND READING Friends, I want to remind you that all of our ancestors walked under the cloud and went through the sea. 2This was like being baptized and becoming followers of Moses. 3All of them also ate the same spiritual food 4and drank the same spiritual drink, which flowed from the spiritual rock that followed them. That rock was Christ.

  39. SECOND READING 5But most of them did not please God. So they died, and their bodies were scattered all over the desert. 6What happened to them is a warning to keep us from wanting to do the same evil things.

  40. SECOND READING 7They worshiped idols, just as the Scriptures say, "The people sat down to eat and drink. Then they got up to dance around." So don't worship idols. 8Some of those people did shameful things, and in a single day about twenty-three thousand of them died. Don't do shameful things as they did.

  41. SECOND READING 9And don't try to test Christ as some of them did and were later bitten by poisonous snakes. 10Don't even grumble, as some of them did and were killed by the destroying angel. 11These things happened to them as a warning to us. All this was written in the Scriptures to teach us who live in these last days.

  42. SECOND READING 12Even if you think you can stand up to temptation, be careful not to fall. 13You are tempted in the same way that everyone else is tempted. But God can be trusted not to let you be tempted too much, and he will show you how to escape from your temptations.  This is the Word of the Lord C: Thanks be to God.

  43. RESPONSE C: ♫ Christ humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross.

  44. gospel Luke13:1-9 CEV Repent or die! M: The holy gospel is written in chapter 13 of the Gospel according to St Luke, beginning at verse one. C: ♫ Glory to you, O Lord.

  45. gospel M: About this same time Jesus was told that Pilate had given orders for some people from Galilee to be killed while they were offering sacrifices.  

  46. gospel 2Jesus replied: Do you think that these people were worse sinners than everyone else in Galilee just because of what happened to them?   3Not at all! But you can be sure that if you don't turn back to God, every one of you will also be killed.
