Matthew 11:16-19
“But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the market places and calling to their playmates, `We piped to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not mourn.’ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, `He has a demon’; the Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”
Homily:
All your excuses for inaction are just that, excuses. Your actions reveal your priorities.
Why do you keep waiting on a mediator – a pastor, a priest. Someone to smoothen your path to God. Are you in conflict with God? Do you not see how infantile such approach is? Do you not see that the path to Him is already made?
There is nothing new to be said or done. All that is required is already available to you. You sin, not because you lack knowledge, but because you flee from it. You turn away, looking for an excuse, and oh, whatever you seek you will find.
The message of love, reconciliation and obedience has been laid from your birth. Stop waiting for another messenger. The message has been placed in your heart. You are the messenger. Live true.
