Love:
Jesus loved us to the end, to the very limit, dying on the cross. We must have this same love which comes from within, from our union with Christ. Such love must be as normal to us as living and breathing.
God’s Ways:
In today’s Gospel, Jesus did not deny that He was of the lineage of the “Son of David.” He is more. He is David’s Lord. But, He is not a “warrior Messiah.” He is a Messiah who brings love, peace, unity and justice to all peoples. How does the Lord want us to live our faith today?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Suffering repulses the human being, but when it is welcomed with love because of faith, it becomes a precious occasion to be united in a mysterious way with Christ the redeemer, who, on the cross, took on the death and all of the pain of humanity.
- Pope Benedict XVI
