Praised Be Jesus Christ!
Today’s reading is Matthew 5:43-48. Jesus says to “be perfect just as your Heavenly Father is perfect”. It isn’t enough to simply live as all others live. We are called to live a life of love, to love even the weakness of our brothers and sisters, to see in them the Lord Himself.
Where does one begin “being perfect”. At the beginning of the Gospel of Matthew Chapter 5 we find the Beatitudes, these beatitudes train us in how to live the Christian life to the full, and thus, how to be “perfect as our Heavenly Father is perfect”.
