Being Genuine

Today's Readings:
2 Thes 2:1-3, 14-17
Ps 96:10-13
Mt 23:23-26

In today's Gospel we see Jesus making the point that true love of God, true worship, comes from within and not from outward show. Jesus tells the Pharisees to "clean the inside of the cup first, so that the outside may also be clean." Today, let us be sure that what we do and say outwardly truly reflects what we believe and feel inwardly. Let us not be like the Pharisees who put on a good show but rather let us follow Christ who was truly genuine in his love for God and for neighbor. May all of you have a great day and God Bless. Fr. Nicholas
