Memorial of Saint Ambrose December 7, 2022Daily Reading from the USCCB: Matthew 11:28-30 In this passage, Jesus speaks to people who he knows and sees are overburdened with religious obligations that are not based on their relationships with God. Rather those obligations are somewhat self-centered; all about proving that they are worthy of God’s love
In Francis, one finds someone fervently obedient to the Church and state, but not opposed to working quietly to improve both.
Franciscan spirituality sees all created things as pieces of a beautiful puzzle that only makes sense when fitted into the larger framework, that is, into the image of Christ.
We are often like Mary Magdalene and those early disciples—we are “in the dark” and don’t always understand what is going on. Our God can be mysterious.
We can get bogged down in our troubles and begin to see the world in a negative light. It’s then that we need to go to our faith and our experience of God to get the bigger picture.
Love always surpasses “law observance.” Jesus’ command is about our relationship with and for each other.
