Help Us Do Our Duty
5th Sunday after Easter 2015
The Oration of this Mass asks that God bless all those who are humble and to teach us how to think correctly. We must be humble if we wish to correct our lives. Humility allows us to hear corrections and take them to heart. This Epistle was written by the cousin and friend of Our Lord, St. James. Even the enemies recognized the holiness of this saint. St. James tells us that we need more than faith alone to be saved and instructs us on the importance of honesty. The most common vice contrary to honesty, is dishonesty to oneself. Every time we sin, we tell ourselves a lie. We must do our duty to be saved.
