Le letture incontrano il luogo ordinario in cui la fede si esercita. Rimani con ciò che Gesù dice o fa qui, e lascia che chieda una risposta onesta.

Prima lettura
Genesis 32:23-33
He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok. He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had. Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day. When he saw that he didn't prevail against him, the man touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was strained as he wrestled. The man said, "Let me go, for the day breaks." Jacob said, "I won't let you go unless you bless me." He said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob". He said, "Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed." Jacob asked him, "Please tell me your name." He said, "Why is it that you ask what my name is?" So he blessed him there. Jacob called the name of the place Peniel; for he said, "I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped because of his thigh. Therefore the children of Israel don't eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew of the hip.
Salmo responsoriale
Psalm 17:1b, 2-3, 6-7ab, 8b and 15
Hear, LORD, my righteous plea. Give ear to my prayer that doesn't go out of deceitful lips. Let my sentence come out of your presence. Let your eyes look on equity. You have proved my heart. You have visited me in the night. You have tried me, and found nothing. I have resolved that my mouth shall not disobey. I have called on you, for you will answer me, God. Turn your ear to me. Hear my speech. Show your marvelous loving kindness, you who save those who take refuge by your right hand from their enemies. Keep me as the apple of your eye. Hide me under the shadow of your wings, As for me, I shall see your face in righteousness. I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with seeing your form.
Vangelo
Matthew 9:32-38
Ora, come que' ciechi uscivano, ecco, gli fu presentato un uomo mutolo, indemoniato. E quando il demonio fu cacciato fuori, il mutolo parlò, e le turbe si maravigliavano, dicendo: Giammai non si vide cotal cosa in Israele. Ma i Farisei dicevano: Egli caccia i demoni per lo principe de' demoni. E GESÙ andava attorno per tutte le città, e per le castella, insegnando nelle lor sinagoghe, e predicando l'evangelo del regno, e sanando ogni malattia, ed ogni infermità, fra il popolo. E, vedendo le turbe, n'ebbe compassione, perciocchè erano stanchi e dispersi, a guisa di pecore che non hanno pastore. Allora egli disse a' suoi discepoli: Ben è la ricolta grande, ma pochi sono gli operai. Pregate adunque il Signore della ricolta, ch'egli spinga degli operai nella sua ricolta.
