I am actually guilty of a strained relationship with neighbours. I am an introvert and find it sometimes difficult to associate with pple I barely know.
may d Lord give me d grace to be more friendly, Amen.

That whole repair the relationship challenge is not easily accomplished when human free will prevents the love and mercy of God to heal.

A wonderful reflection during Lent; thank you! I enjoy the daily reflections, because they help to understand the readings and demonstrate relevance to our lives, but I also enjoy the comments. They provide insight into the key messages of the reflections and sometimes questions or challenges raised are shared by others who would be reluctant to articulate them themselves. Thanks to all readers, too.

“…a dependence on Him (God) for everything we have and are.” If ‘gratitude’ is substituted for dependence I can accept your exhortation. But God allows (expects) us to use his gifts, especially that of free will. God grants
in-dependence.

Thanks Bob for sharing this message. It gives one a lot to reflect on this Lenten period especially on building our relationship with God and restoring relationships with others. Some people in our lives we just ignore and don’t want to have anything to do with them because they have hurt us one way or the other. We pray that God gives us the strength and courage to restore and build relationships.

Truly Bob, you’ve made the readings clearer, repairing walls means restoring relationship between God and neighbors; including knowing them. That’s great.

Thanks Bob.
