All, from least to greatest, shall know me

“I will place my law within them and write it upon their hearts; I will be their God, and they shall be my people. No longer will they have need to teach their friends and relatives how to know the LORD. All, from least to greatest, shall know me, says the LORD, for I will forgive their evildoing and remember their sin no more.” (JER 31: 33-34)

Some of our good friends or even relatives do not know the Lord. We pray for them; we ask others to pray for them; we hope that one day they will know the Lord. Our God knows this perfectly, and He “will place His law within them and write it upon their hearts.” We should trust Him.

“Whoever serves me must follow me, says the Lord; and where I am, there also will my servant be.” (Gospel Acclamation)
