Friday October 23rd: Seek God’s Wisdom

Catholic IntelligenceUpdated 1 min read

The Diocese of Port of Spain released a reflection on October 23, 2026, encouraging Christians to use the gift of judgment to decide what is good, just, and pleasing to God.

Drawing on Luke 12:54–59, the reflection states that Jesus calls people to use judgment wisely rather than to condemn or belittle others. The text suggests that believers should allow prayer, conscience, and the teachings of Christ to guide their decisions.

The Diocese notes that good moral judgment requires the courage to choose what is right even when it is difficult or unpopular. It advises against making decisions based on personal advantage or following the crowd, suggesting instead that seeking God's wisdom helps people live faithfully and responsibly.
