Sunday Week  8 Ordinary Time.

It is hard for me, a sinful man, to believe  the words of this morning's Entry Antiphon and yet I do for "he saved me because he delighted in me" produced an instant reaction that was my human joy to be known by "Our Father".

It is my filth that is revealed by the sieving of my conscience. I have to follow the paths revealed by the grace of God in my own thoughts and reasonings.

It is I who have to sing praise in the morning and strive for holiness throughout today.

I am the one who can confidently respond to "be steadfast, immovable" and ultimately "know that my labour is not in vain".

It is Jesus, IAMFATHERSONHOLYSPIRIT, who warns me to respond to him with my whole being, body, mind and soul to become the perfect vessel thrown by his hands on his potter's wheel, the whole fruit that will become eternal delight in his kingdom that is not of this world.

Dear Lord, you know that I am sincerely afraid of hypocrisy. You know that I can always smell it out in others. I always am aware of the potential plank in my own eye. You also know how I am afraid of turning my conscience into a sieve so fine that it becomes filter paper that results in despair at the evil I have been party to at many times in my life. I keep on saying "you know" because I know that you are complete knowledge, total perfection, total love and that iam  because you are our creator God and also our loving Father who enables us to rejoice with Mary, Angels Saints secure in the love that can forgive even my sins and the sins of the whole world. Help all sinners to accept your grace and discard the sin that blocks the meshes of our Consciences and let your grace pour into our hearts to become the delight that it is to know, love and serve. Amen
