In today’s gospel, Jesus reminds us that we must not only hear the word of God, but also act on it. Our faith is an active and dynamic one that calls us to a deeper relationship with God and His children. We can’t build this relationship properly if we sit idly by, while God calls us to acts of love, mercy, and sacrifice. We must place the word of God at the very center of our being, guiding our every thought, word, and work so that we might do God' Will with all of our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths.
Do we listen to the word of God and act on it? What is our relationship with God and His children founded upon? Are we willing to make sacrifices to follow the teachings of the gospel?
O Lord, help us act on your word.
Amen.
