P. Clemente Barrón, CP

Jesús y Pablo no quieren que estemos satisfechos con lo que es. Se nos está pidiendo ser un pueblo valiente.

These realities were true when Jesus spoke them, and they are true now. Love your neighbor and your enemy, treat the other with kindness and dignity, welcome the stranger, welcome the children, forgive the sinner, and do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

There are no human words that will persuade us to love our enemies the way Jesus loved his enemies and gave up his life for them.

Creating a clean heart within us will take the courage to acknowledge our wrongdoing and the courage to turn to the only one who can forgive us, our loving God.

If this man were a prophet, he would know who and what sort of woman this is who is touching him, that she is a sinner.

What does trustworthy mean and why is it important?

This is when Jesus responds: go and sell what you have; give to the poor; follow me. The young man went away sad because he had many possessions.
