Let's reconcile now
The gospel text reminds us that our virtue must be more than just the talk of the Pharisees - we must live and act from an inner conviction and a deeply held faith and not just go through external emotions. God sees the deepest heart and judges accordingly. Jesus also reminds us to reconcile with our family for any wrongs we have done to them or they have done to us. Where we fail to do so, we must take concrete steps toward conversion. This is the message of the prophet Ezekiel. God wants the sinner to turn from his sin to have life. Reconciliation is therefore the ultimate goal for which Jesus died on the Cross. (Cf. 2Cor5:18)
Excellent week-end
