Daily Reflection: Thursday, September 21
Thursday September 21
Today’s first reading urges us to live in a manner worthy of the call we have received. The invitation is to live in humility, gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another through love, striving to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. This may be easier with those we love, with those with whom we agree, but the call is universal! We have been called to follow Jesus, loving as he loved, forgiving as he forgave, all in a spirit of humility and gentleness. Let us remind ourselves of this when we are faced with words and actions that make us angry and frustrated. Let us ask God for the strength to be patient and bear with one another in love.
