Thanks Dan for this very wonderful message which is up to the point. Your idea that we should focus on the Bread of Life which is Christ Jesus is very correct as it will help us to move on with our faith without turning back. For those who have committed sins it is not for us to condemn them but to pray for them so that they may repent and move on with their lives. God bless you Dan

I’m a bit disturbed by Paul’s exhortation that he has already cast judgment and that the Corinthians should deliver the person to the evil one.

I thought only God judges and that we are supposed to try to correct the person in their sins, but that only God judges.

What to do?

Thank you for your short concise reflection that speaks directly to my troubled heart. News of the abuses of those ordained to be the shepherd of the flock in our universal church can rattle one’s faith. Thank God for today’s readings and reflections like yours that help to keep some of us steadfast in our church and spiritual journey. Truly so, we should all set our mind on the Bread of Life!

During this time of shaken faith, I have been reflecting on Ezekiel 34, especially 1-11 and the very last line of the 34.

Dan, the reflection was right on target. I pray for strength, compassion and peace for all the victims and their families. I also pray for all our faithful clergy. Pray for mercy and forgiveness for the unfaithful.

Thank you for bringing the crisis of “malice and wickedness” from our Catholic leadership to the light. The readings for today provide us with wise counsel. Thankfully, God is clear in these instructions! Again, it is the responsibility of every lay, ordained and vowed religious members of the Church to act, to bring to the world “unleavened bread of sincerity and truth”.

Thank you for the message, it reminds us that we need to monitor our behaviors and hold to our faith so that we may remain faith filled and Christians following Christ. The devil is out there waiting to find those who waiver and reach for his promises instead of Christ. I pray for all, the sinners who need forgiveness (hard at times), the people damaged by these sins, (victims and their families) as well as the church and for all of us who wish to continue on the path of salvation and Christianity. Crisis sometimes bring to the front the strength we need and have not looked for. Thank you Dan for your insight.

Hey Dan,

Jesus used a whip to cleanse the Temple. From what I’ve gathered, it’s time for another cleansing. I wonder what Jesus will use this time?
