Matthew 18:21-22

Let us all remember that we are in the Holy Presence of God.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Matthew 18:21-22
Peter approached Jesus and asked him, “Lord, if my brother sins against me, how often must I forgive
him? As many as seven times?” Jesus answered, “I say to you, not seven times but seventy-seven
times.”

Reflection
Sometimes, it is hard for us to forgive someone, especially if that person really broke our heart. But
today, Jesus is telling us to forgive others, not only for several times but always. It may sound absurd,
but if we look deeper, we will realize that God is just preparing our hearts to experience love and to
be loved again. How often do you forgive others?

Lasallian Guiding Principle
As stated in the LGP, the spirit of faith allows one to discover God’s active presence in His Word, in
men and women, in the poor, in nature, in history, and in ourselves. As Lasallians, we are challenged
to reflect on how God works in our lives and be able to realize how blessed we are to have a God
who loves us unconditionally. Let us be agents of God’s abiding love and presence to all especially
to the lost, the last and the least.
