Quinquagesima Sunday 2015
We are judged primarily by love. This Epistle for today tells us that charity removes anger and evil thoughts. Although anger can be justified and good, it can also be inordinate and sinful. We must be patient with others, but especially with ourselves. When they fall, those who are full of pride become impatient with themselves. The humble thank God even for allowing them to fall to teach them how dependent they are. We should petition God for our needs with all patience, knowing that God will answer our prayers in His own good time. We must have a constant resolution to reject our sins and even our imperfections.
