But if I am humble enough to realize that I need God to have the wisdom and the fortitude to enter through the “narrow gate,” I may be less ready to pass judgment on others.
Weekly homilies that break open the Sunday Scriptures through the lens of the Passionist charism and today’s lived experience.

But if I am humble enough to realize that I need God to have the wisdom and the fortitude to enter through the “narrow gate,” I may be less ready to pass judgment on others.

What could be an indication that we are authentically following Jesus? The answer that comes to me is the Cross.

Is our treasure our relationship with a loving God in Jesus Christ? And do we see our relationship with God inextricably connected to our relationship with others and with all of God’s creation?

Wouldn’t we all want so much that we wouldn’t have to worry ever again about having enough?
There may be limits to the diversity that can be sustained in any group or institution, but there can be no limits on love. There are no limits on God’s love for us!
