to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways

April 20, 2017 6:00 am

“You are the children of the prophets and of the covenant that God made with your ancestors when he said to Abraham, ‘In your offspring all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’ For you first, God raised up his servant and sent him to bless you by turning each of you from your evil ways.” (ACTS 3: 25-26) 

Our Lord knows perfectly our limits, our weaknesses and our daily temptations. Because God not only knows us but also loves us, He “raised up his servant and sent him to bless [us] by turning each of [us] from [our] evil ways.” We are always protected and supported, especially when we fight against our “evil ways.” We received the Sacrament of Penance, and we have daily support and remedy in the Eucharist and an amazing cure with daily readings. 

“This is the day the LORD has made; let us be glad and rejoice in it.” (Gospel Acclamation)
