Struck.

Let me share with you the Gospel Reflection has clobbered me and inspired me most at the same time.
This was the Gospel Reflection of Matthew 17:22-27
I’ll just cut it. It’s entitled:
 One Direction

“The Gospel reminds us that Jesus is the Son of the all-knowing God. The Son of the all-knowing God bowed down to the law of men. He respected the law although He knew that He is the fulfilment of the law. Jesus displayed His zeal and single-mindedness to God’s purpose. His eyes were fixed on His purpose in the world. He stood firm and never got distracted with who He was and what His mission was in the world.

Can I do that? That’s impossible! All I can do without hesitation is to admit to God that I am unworthy; I am easily distracted by this world and I am guilty of many sins. I can accept that I am nothing. But because of God’s love for man and particularly His unconditional love for me, I have hope; I have faith; I have love; I have Jesus. And with Him everything is now possible.’’


This was so striking, isn’t it? The last paragraph says it all-- Represents me as whole.
