First Reading
2 Corinthians 9:6-10
6The point is this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.
7Each one must do as he has made up his mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.
8And God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, so that you may always have enough of everything and may provide in abundance for every good work.
9As it is written, "He scatters abroad, he gives to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever."
10He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your resources and increase the harvest of your righteousness.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 112:1-2, 5-9
1Praise the LORD. Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who greatly delights in his commandments!
2His descendants will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed.
5It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who conducts his affairs with justice.
6For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered for ever.
7He is not afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.
8His heart is steady, he will not be afraid, until he sees his desire on his adversaries.
9He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever; his horn is exalted in honor.
Gospel
John 12:24-26
24Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
25He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
26If any one serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there shall my servant be also; if any one serves me, the Father will honor him.
