Sermon On The
5th Sunday after Pentecost 2013
✟Father Violette
Good Catholics are set apart from the rest of the world, not only because of their modesty and humility, but especially because they render good for the evils they have received.  If we want God to hear our prayers we must avoid evil and do good, pursuing peace with others.  Catholics are called to do the opposite of what the world commands.  When non-Catholics witness actions which are above the natural order, they recognize the source of those good actions could only be God Himself.  Our Lord has given us the true interpretation of God’s Law, which had been perverted by the religious leaders of His time.  We should ask God to help us understand how to follow Him in this life and to understand better the joy of the life to come.
