3/18/22 The Stone That the Builders Rejected OLL Homilies

    • Non-Profit

In today’s message Father uses The work of Michelangelo to illustrate how God sees us, how we see ourselves, and how we are to view others. Joseph was rejected because he was a beloved son and Jesus was rejected because he was THE beloved Son, so naturally as Christians we will also be rejected. All of us have some degree of self loathing because we’re looking at ourselves from the eyes of the world and not from the eyes of God. God sees us exulted. Also when we look at our brothers and sisters, can we look past our judgements of how they appear and see them as God does?
