An invitation for each of us

Today's first reading (Isaiah 42:1-4, 6-7) is fulfilled perfectly in Christ, but it is also an invitation and a challenge to all of us who call ourselves Christians.

I, the LORD, have called you
for the victory of justice,
I have grasped you by the hand;
I formed you, and set you
as a covenant of the people,
a light for the nations,
to open the eyes of the blind,
to bring out prisoners from confinement,
and from the dungeon,
those who live in darkness.
