This Sunday’s gospel reading from Matthew is a continuation of the Sermon on the Mount. Last week we heard the Beatitudes … basically the prelude to the sermon. The Beatitudes paint a picture of those who are deemed “blessed” … the poor, the hungry and thirsty, those who are grieving a loss, those who are humble, those who are honest and live with integrity, those who are compassionate, and those who seek justice and are willing to work for peace regardless of the costs. As I mentioned in my sermon, we are those people … we are the ones who are blessed. And because we are blessed we can … we are called … to bless others in the world around us. |
