16th October, 2013: Remembering St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
'For God shows no partiality' - that verse from the first reading is evidenced in the Gospel today. Jesus minces no words, nor spares no one! All that matters to Jesus is Justice and Mercy... and he pulls up every one be it Pharisees or Scribes, as Paul pulls up be it Jews or Greeks, following his Master! Justice and Mercy - purest forms of expression of God's love - is what we are called to set our minds on today! Celebrating the memory of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, we are reminded of the profound revelation of the incredible love of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus! Though God's love is a beautiful feeling of being drenched gratuitously, it challenges us - not just to reciprocate but - to act with justice and mercy towards our fellow beings, as a concrete expression of that love received and cherished! Being just, merciful and loving is the only way we can fit the description of being 'children of God'.

பிறர் மீது அன்பும் இரக்கமும் கொள்வது மட்டுமே "இறைவனின் குழந்தைகள்" எனும் தகுதிக்கு நாம் பொருத்தமானவர்களாக இருப்பதற்கான வழி என்பதை நான் உணர்ந்திருக்கிறேன் கர்த்தாவே...
ஆமென் !
