LENTEN WEEKDAY
The least we can do
The vivid biblical descriptions of the Last or Final Judgment are designed to impress upon us the importance of taking our obligations to the less fortunate very seriously indeed. “But where to begin?” you might ask. The Corporal Works of Mercy are a pretty good place. If we each do our part, we can hope for the day when there will be no more hungry to feed, homeless to shelter, prisoners to visit, and the like. Then we can welcome that Final Judgment with confidence. But let’s get started today—after all, none of us knows the day or the hour.TODAY’S READINGS: Leviticus 19:1-2, 11-18; Matthew 25:31-46 (224)
“Whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.”
