Are we not to turn away from our sinful pasts? Are we not to reconcile ourselves with our Father who loves us? Inspite of our wickedness or what evil we had done. Despite how we have failed to live out best possible lives, according to His Will for us. Our loving Father is calling us back to Him.
Great rejoicing there will be, for when the repentant sinner who comes home! But let us take heed! For we know not when the door to come home will be closed. That is why Jesus is upset and mourns for the sinner who refuses to turn back to God, for the harsh reality is that the door will be shut for all eternity. How painful it must be to be separated from our loving Father.
Through the intercession of our blessed mother Mary and all the Saints, may we never lose our God. Amen
GOSPEL
Matthew 11:20–24
Jesus began to reproach the towns where most of his mighty deeds had been done, since they had not repented. “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty deeds done in your midst had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented in sackcloth and ashes. But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you. And as for you, Capernaum:
Will you be exalted to heaven? You will go down to the netherworld.
For if the mighty deeds done in your midst had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.”
