+ Our first reading today states that “for
freedom Christ set us free.”
He will not force us to
believe in him.
Similarly, “no sign will be
given” if people presume that the marvel of a miracle will convince them to
believe in Jesus Christ.
There is something greater
than Jonah here,” the gospel of Luke proclaims.
Only when we expect something
greater than what we can imagine or plan does faith in Christ make sense.
Freedom leads to that
conviction.
And so today: reach not only
for the stars but beyond them: reach for the glory of God, life in the new
heaven and the new earth, and perfect union of mind and heart with all saved
and redeemed brothers and sisters.
And pray to be but a humble
instrument in bringing in the lost sheep! After all we can be then answer to
their wildest dreams and desires of their hearts!
If
today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
