Spiritual Reflections From a Priest in the Rockies
Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, be merciful as your Father is merciful, do not judge, do not condemn, forgive and you will be forgiven....
The heights of love and mercy that Christ calls us to can feel quite overwhelming! When so many people have hurt us in this life, betrayed our trust, judged us harshly and shown us hate instead of love, the call to live as Christ did, free of these sinful and hurtful actions, at times feels impossible. Maybe a select, holy few can live in this way, but can each and every Christians fulfill these lofty commands that Christ gives to everyone who is baptized into His death and resurrection?
Without His grace we can never do so. But we also need the intercession of the Holy Mother of God, the choirs of angels, and the Communion of Saints, that great cloud of witnesses, to also encourage and inspire us to live by their holy examples. Countless saints have lived the path of love, mercy and forgiveness, knowing happiness in this life for doing so and now abiding in eternal bliss for fighting the good fight and winning the race of faith.
Let us not be discouraged if we fall short of what Our Lord asks us. He always extends us His hands, forever pierced by the wounds of sins, to pick us up, encourage us and inspire us to try again, and again, and again...
In Jesus through Mary,
Fr. Nathan Siray
