SECOND READING
reading from the first letter of St. Peter the Apostle
Beloved
Approaching the Lord who is the living stone, rejected indeed by men but in God's sight chosen and precious, Ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. It is contained in Scripture: "Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth in him certainly will not be disappointed."
you therefore who believe, hi. And for those who do not believe, the stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone - and the stone of stumbling and rock of offense. Those who disobey the word, fail, indeed, to which they are destined.
You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own people, that you may declare the wonderful deeds of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

GOSPEL
holy Gospel according to John
Jesus said to his disciples:
"Let not your heart be troubled. Do you believe in God? I believe in me. In my Father's house are many mansions. Were this not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, come again and receive you unto myself, that you were there, where I am. You know the way where I am going. "
said to him, Thomas, "Sir, we do not know where you are going. So how do we know the way? ".
Jesus said to him: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, know my Father. But now I know him and have seen. "
Philip said to him: "Lord, show us the Father, and this is enough for us."
Jesus said to him: "Philip, as long as I am with you always, and still do not know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say: "Show us the Father?". Do not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I say to you, do not speak to each other. The Father who dwells in me, he doeth the works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me. But if not, at least believe because of the same work.
Verily, verily, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do, indeed, and will do greater works than these, because I go unto my Father. "

brothers and sisters
are born with problems. History of Revelation tell us about the early church. The sixth chapter is about a dispute that is begotten among Hellenists or chrzescijanmi derived from Hellas and the Hebrews. The dispute over the distribution of wealth. Since it was community property. Common cash. A bit like the EU budget or how the state budget. Problems came up: why do you get more and others less.
apostles could be caught in a trap: no good. Give us a detailed report. Present arguments. This lady so much less, because less belong to the Church and even more, because more time is spent in prayer and often go to church. Someone smiles ....
