Day 263: The Father's Generosity (2025)

Fr. Mike takes us through various parables in Matthew such as the parable of the lost sheep, the merciful servant, and the laborers in the vineyard. He invites us not to be envious when others are blessed, but to allow the Father to be generous. Today's readings are Matthew 18-21, and Proverbs 19:13-16.

Hard lesson made a little softer to swallow

This exact topic, of God forgiving those who have not been faithful and even celebrating them when they come around, is a tough pill to swallow and even tougher to teach my kids. I really appreciate the way Father Mike teaches us to see it as God's prerogitive of generosity of Grace and not to be envious. Thank you Father Mike!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
