Time to search the heart


Saturday of the 3rd week of Lent


Luke 18:9-14

"God did not promise us an easy life, but he promised us a meaningful life."

This came into mind when I was reflecting on how God chastises us as in the reading for today: "He has torn us to pieces, but he will heal us;
he has struck us down, but he will bandage our wounds;
after a day or two he will bring us back to life,
on the third day he will raise us
and we shall live in his presence."

Mercy is what the Lord wants, not just sacrifice.  Search the heart on what it really loves.  If it's not the Lord, ask for forgiveness.  But if it's love that it loves above all things, then nothing is impossible.  We shall be giving to the Lord what is due him - total adoration, and to others, a pure sacrifice.
