Heart and Law

No other nation, no matter how great, has laws so just as those that I have taught you today. Be on your guard! Make certain that you do not forget, as long as you live, what you have seen with your own eyes. Tell your children and your grandchildren
Deuteronomy 4:8‭-‬9 GNBDK

Reflection:
If we look the commandments as they are; they would come across as a set of rules for our community and society at large. And Jesus teaches us that these are not just laws and regulations, but at the heart of it, is a matter of choice. If we understand the heart of the laws then we will be able to practise them but if we don't then what exactly do w e teach our children.

Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to be open to his law; understanding the freedom of choice between good and evil. May you be like Jesus always honour the Father's will and may his Holy Spirit help you in this your endeavour. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones:)
