GOSPEL PEARLS
True beatitude
“Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it.”
(Lc 11:28)
While Jesus was speaking,
a woman from the crowd called out and said to him,
“Blessed is the womb that carried you
and the breasts at which you nursed.”
He replied,
“Rather, blessed are those
who hear the word of God and observe it.”
(Lc 11:27-28)
