S                                                                                                   Monday:
      ome of us have bad memories of being the last one chosen for the kickball game during
      school recess. Or we may have been overlooked at work when the boss chose somebody            Ex 1:8-14,22
      else for the new position. Some of us may have trouble choosing what to eat at a              Ps 124:1b-8
restaurant or choosing what to wear on a night out. Our choices, and other people’s choices,        Mt 10:34—11:1
can have a big impact on our lives.
                                                                                                    Tuesday:
We live in a culture of ‘choice’ where there are dozens of cereal options at the grocery store,     Ex 2:1-15a
hundreds of different shows & movies to stream on Netflix, and thousands of different shoes         Ps 69:3,14,30-31,
to buy on Amazon. It’s invigorating to have so many options and the power to choose how we          33-34
want, but it’s also overwhelming at times. What do we choose? And why are we choosing it?           Mt 11:20-24
Our readings this week are all about being chosen and then making a choice. In our first            Wednesday:
reading, Amaziah the priest of Bethel tells Amos to get out of town. He’s stirring up too much      St. Kateri
trouble with his prophecy. Amos responds, I’m really just a shepherd. I didn’t choose to do all     Tekakwitha
this but God chose it for me. I’m just following God’s call.                                        Ex 3:1-6,9-12
                                                                                                    Ps 103:1b-4,6-7
In our second reading, St. Paul tells the Ephesians that God has chosen them, among others, to      Mt 11:25-27
live in Christ, who was sent to them by the Father so that they may have life to its fullest. And
in our Gospel reading, Jesus’s twelve apostles are chosen by Him to journey outward and cure        Thursday:
those who are ailing. The disciples chose to follow Jesus’s call; the Ephesians only sometimes.     St. Bonaventure
                                                                                                    Ex 3:13-20
In these readings, Amos, the Ephesians, and the Apostles are chosen for some greater purpose.       Ps 105:1,5,8-9,
They are chosen to prophecy, to praise, and to heal. They didn’t get a choice in that. But they     24-27
did choose what they did after that. Just as God chose them, he chooses ALL of us for some          Mt 11:28-30
greater purpose. And we can respond or not.
                                                                                                    Friday:
What are you chosen for? And how will you respond? There are many Cathedral service                 Ex 11:10—12:14
opportunities about which you can discern. With COVID restrictions lifted and liturgical            Ps 116:12-13,15,
ministers coming back, the Cathedral is looking for people to serve as Eucharistic Ministers,       16bc,17-18
Altar Servers, Sacristans, Lectors, Ushers, and Greeters. If you’re interested, contact Julie       Mt 12:1-8
Batholomew (julie@cathedralofsaintandrew.org). We are also hoping to reopen the Clothing            Saturday:
Center on Saturday mornings in August. If you’re interested contact me                              Ex 12:37-42
(fathermike@cathedralofsaintandrew.org).                                                            Ps 136:1,23-24,
We are all chosen by God for some greater purpose. We don’t get a choice in that, but we can        10-15
                                                                                                    Mt 12:14-21
choose how to respond. If we choose God who first chose us, we usually choose the right path.
                                                                                                    Sunday:
