Sirach 48:1-4, 9-11
Matthew 17:9a, 10-13
Prophets exist in every age. They are important in reminding us what really matters in life and how God is calling us all to life in Him. In simpler terms, we serve as prophets to one another, reminding each other about God’s love for us and his desire for a relationship with us. The Body of Christ functions best when we are willing to be held accountable for our actions and then support one another when we falter. Also, there are times when someone in need can benefit by a reminder that they are fearfully and wonderfully made by a God who loves them.
