"But as to what is within, give alms, and behold, everything will be clean for you."
Luke 11:41
The living word of God speaks to us differently each time we read it. This is my second effort at reflecting this morning, God deleted the first one. When we read His word, His spirit talks to us. There are some who don't understand why Catholics go to confession. It is clearly written in God's word.
We can confess our sins to God but do we give alms? In my Catholic faith, when I go to confessions with a priest he normally gives me some type of penance. This in my way of thinking this morning is giving alms. God is cleansing the inside with the penance. Our faith in God and His word in action is what cleanses the inside of the cup.
Dear Lord God, You speak to each of us differently. May Your word penetrate our hearts to bring new life into our spirit. May we see your divine plan in action today. Allow us to see the need to slow down and reflect upon your living word each day. I thank You Lord for the time to reflect and for your insight. May there be calmness today in the world around each of us. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
