First Reading – James 1<\/span><\/h4>\n

Blessed is he who perseveres in temptation,
\nfor when he has been proven he will receive the crown of life
\nthat he promised to those who love him.
\nNo one experiencing temptation should say,
\n“I am being tempted by God”;
\nfor God is not subject to temptation to evil,
\nand he himself tempts no one.
\nRather, each person is tempted when lured and enticed by his desire.
\nThen desire conceives and brings forth sin,
\nand when sin reaches maturity it gives birth to death.<\/p>\n

Do not be deceived, my beloved brothers and sisters:
\nall good giving and every perfect gift is from above,
\ncoming down from the Father of lights,
\nwith whom there is no alteration or shadow caused by change.
\nHe willed to give us birth by the word of truth
\nthat we may be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.<\/p>\n

Gospel – Mark 8<\/span><\/p>\n

The disciples had forgotten to bring bread,
\nand they had only one loaf with them in the boat.
\nJesus enjoined them, “Watch out,
\nguard against the leaven of the Pharisees
\nand the leaven of Herod.”
\nThey concluded among themselves that
\nit was because they had no bread.
\nWhen he became aware of this he said to them,
\n“Why do you conclude that it is because you have no bread?
\nDo you not yet understand or comprehend?
\nAre your hearts hardened?
\nDo you have eyes and not see, ears and not hear?
\nAnd do you not remember,
\nwhen I broke the five loaves for the five thousand,
\nhow many wicker baskets full of fragments you picked up?”
\nThey answered him, “Twelve.”
\n“When I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand,
\nhow many full baskets of fragments did you pick up?”
\nThey answered him, “Seven.”
\nHe said to them, “Do you still not understand?”<\/p>\n

This is the\u00a0Word of the Lord.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
