Go In Peace




"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good."
1Cor 15:1-11
Mt 11:28
Lk 7:36-50

Sometimes it is necessary to help another to see his sin or faults. It Is Difficult To Do. We need to expose the sin, without making a moral judgement on the person. Often it is hard to differentiate between the two, and we can find ourselves assigning motives to a person's actions. This is something which we must not do. God alone reads hearts. If we examine our own conscience when we consider bringing to light the faults of another, we may see that we are not motivated truth in love. We need to reflect on the Lord's compassionate, loving heart and on his gentle way of dealing with us. It is difficult for us to know and admit our sins. While we may say that we are sinners, it is hard for us to acknowledge it within ourselves. Often we keep judgments and resentments within our hearts. But, in the sacrament of reconciliation, He washes us in his merciful love and tells us to to "go in peace."♥
