Theme:BE GENEROUS TO OTHERS
( Lev. 19:1-2,11-18, Ps 19, Matt 25: 31-46)
One of the virtues we are called to mature in so far as the season of Lent is concerned is our acts of charity. Our acts of charity will gain us our salvation. These acts of charity that Jesus mentions today in the gospel is what we refer to as ” the corporal works of mercy “.
Let us remember that, when we do good to others, it is Jesus we are doing it to. When we help others, it is Jesus we are helping. We are always to see Jesus in our brothers and sisters. ” Whatever you do to the least of my brothers, you do it for me ” according to Jesus. Give till it hurts.
Some of us are so possessive to the extent that we find it difficult to give generously from our heart. Meanwhile, we want others to give us. Let’s follow the golden rule ” Do unto others what you want them to do for you “. Help someone today by being charitable.
May God help us to grow in our acts of charity. Amen.
Have a blessed week.
Shalom🙏🏼🙏🏼
