Votive Mass of the Sacred Heart

First Reading

1 Corinthians 4:1-5

1This is how one should regard us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.

2Moreover it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy.

3But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. I do not even judge myself.

4I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.

5Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then every man will receive his commendation from God.

Responsorial Psalm

Psalms 37:3-6, 27-28, 39-40

3Trust in the LORD, and do good; so you will dwell in the land, and enjoy security.

4Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act.

6He will bring forth your vindication as the light, and your right as the noonday.

27Depart from evil, and do good; so shall you abide for ever.

28For the LORD loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. The righteous shall be preserved for ever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off.

39The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; he is their refuge in the time of trouble.

40The LORD helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked, and saves them, because they take refuge in him.

Gospel

Luke 5:33-39

33And they said to him, “The disciples of John fast often and offer prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink.”

34And Jesus said to them, “Can you make wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?

35The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast in those days.”

36He told them a parable also: “No one tears a piece from a new garment and puts it upon an old garment; if he does, he will tear the new, and the piece from the new will not match the old.

37And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; if he does, the new wine will burst the skins and it will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed.

38But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.

39And no one after drinking old wine desires new; for he says, ‘The old is good.’ ”
