25th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Sept. 21, 2025) — What Do I Spend My Time Thinking About?

This weekend, we’re asked to pause and pay attention to our own thoughts: What do I actually spend the most time focusing on each day? Is it worries about the world, struggles at home or work, or concerns for our children and families? Or is it God’s kingdom, my role as His disciple, and how I live that out?

St. Paul reminds us in today’s readings that our thoughts and concerns don’t have to spiral into worry or discouragement. Instead, they can be transformed into prayer, into trust in God, and into the energy of discipleship. “First of all, I ask that supplications, prayers, petitions, and thanksgivings be offered for everyone… lifting up holy hands, without anger or argument” (1 Tim 2).

Jesus also says in the Gospel, “No servant can serve two masters.” One practical way to discern who we’re serving is to notice what we think and talk about most. Is it our anxieties—or the Lord?

This week, simply pay attention: Do my concerns lead me deeper into worry, or do they become fuel for prayer and for living as Christ’s disciple?
