Jesus gives us a fitting lesson for our current times with the Gospel today. The way we do everything and how we encounter all people in our daily life should start from the love of God in our hearts. Having Jesus walking with us, because we experience Him in our hearts, will lead us to treating all people with respect and dignity that is rightly theirs as a son or daughter of God and help us in making good decisions in our actions and words. It is the love of God that strengthens us in our Christian ways of life and thus it is God’s love that flows forth from each of us. Our baptism into Jesus Christ is our rising to new life with Him and thus we live for Him in all that we do. Trusting in God and allowing Him to guide us through our days is all that we need in order to make this world a better place. Let us strive for this perfection each day and live in the goodness of the Lord!
