Cold or hot, closed or open?
Tuesday, 33rd week in Ordinary Time
Rev 3: 1-6,14-20; Lk 19:1-10
Choices and compromises make a great difference in Christian living; what matters is not so much what we do as what we intend to. Our heart and our intentions Master much more than acts and results. This is both an advantage and a disadvantage for the human heart. Advantage for those who are sincere with their efforts to remain true and dedicated to the Lord, inspite of their shortfalls. Disadvantage for those who create an aura around themselves as if they are spiritual giants while there rest skeletons inside the cupboard conveniently covered off, but the Lord knows all and sees all.
Let your choices be translated into acts of commitment. Acts of grandeur lacking true internal choices cannot bear the true lasting fruits that we long for. Choices matter - are you cold or hot, your hearts closed or open?
