Dear Friend in the Lord,
“Pathways to Jesus”: In today’s Gospel Jesus proclaims to His disciples, “Enter the narrow gate; a hard road that leads to eternal life; not the wide road that leads to destruction.” Ponder on, are we willing to make the sacrifices, share our blessings, love and forgive like Jesus, even when the challenges are difficult?”
Fr Philip Heng, S.J.
Matthew 7:6, 12-14
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Do not judge, and you will not be judged; because the judgements you give are the judgements you will get, and the amount you measure out is the amount you will be given.
‘Why do you observe the splinter in your brother’s eye and never notice the plank in your own? How dare you say to your brother, “Let me take that splinter out of your eye,” when, all the time there is a plank in your own? Hypocrite! Take the plank out of your own eye first, and then you will see clearly enough to take the splinter out of your brother’s eye.’
