In the readings for the 23rd Sunday of Ordinary Time, God commands each of us to be a spokesperson for His saving truth.
In the first reading, God tells Ezekiel, "You I have appointed watchman for the house of Israel; when you hear me say anything, you shall warn them for me...."
About 45 years ago, I was at a prayer meeting, and I got the inner urge to share this very passage from Ezekiel, but chose not to for fear of turning off a seminarian, who was present for the first time.
