Serving the Word: 1st March

MONDAY 1st MARCH 2021

Luke 6, 36-38:

“Be merciful… Do not judge… Do not condemn… Forgive… Give… Whatever measure you use, will be used on you.”

 

What different measures we use to measure ourselves and to measure others.

This Monday in Lent may be a good day for you to review your measurements:

– capacity: how far are you able to forgive? Are you one of those who say “I forgive but I do not forget”? Keep in mind that this is not how God forgives.

–  length: how far is your measure of love and mercy? Remember that the measure of God’s love is to love without measure.

– weight: are your weighing scales fair, and do you not weigh more or tip the scales more according to your own personal interests?

God always leans towards mercy.

+ Forgive by burning and making ashes.

+ Love without measure.

+ Be filled with mercy.

Good day.

Antonio Sanjuán Marín, cmf
