Celebrating 175 years of joyful service!
Back to weekly reflections
The Gospel reading for this past Sunday is about the prayers of the Pharisee and the tax collector. Just to recap: the tax collector asks God for mercy and goes home justified; the Pharisee thanks God that he is not like other people and is not justified. As a matter of fact, he was praying to himself!
As I reflect on this very familiar parable, I thank God that I’m not like that Pharisee…oh…wait!
God have mercy on me, a sinner!
