The Freedom to Choose

But now I tell you: love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,  so that you may become the children of your Father in heaven. For he makes his sun to shine on bad and good people alike, and gives rain to those who do good and to those who do evil.
Matthew 5:44‭-‬45 GNBDK

Reflection:
The popular question tossed around to people of faith is, "If there is a God, why does bad things happen?" Today's Gospel passage sums up the answer. God is Good and he loves all as He is the creator. He has given each one of us a free will to choose. We are all called to be perfect like our heavenly Father, however, the choice to choose between good and bad is with us.

Prayer:
I pray that God our Father pours out his grace on you as you willing respond to his Love acknowledging Jesus Christ his son as Lord and Saviour. May his Holy Spirit always be by your side. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
