Jesus said in today’s gospel that, “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock.”

Remove The Wooden Beam From Your Eye First
Saint Paul writes in today’s first reading for Mass that he fears, “that after having preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.” He has the right sentiment. The gospel reflects this same danger.
Love Builds Up
Saint Paul wrote in the first reading from the book of Corinthians today that, “love builds up.” That pretty much summarizes all of the readings for Mass today. Just three, simple words to remember, that love builds up other people, it doesn’t tear them down.
