In approaching mass we
give thanks for all the people whom we have encountered so far in life. These
include, also, people who have vexed us, hurt us or harmed us in any way. We
seek the good for them and healing and forgiveness. At the same time we ask for
forgiveness from God for those times that we have vexed, hurt or harmed others
knowingly or not. It might be feasible to seek forgiveness even before we
approach the altar. Such is the sacrifice that is demanded of us who paid the
ultimate sacrifice for everyone.
Let us be thankful for
everyone including those we have found most difficult. Every person, every
situation and every suffering can be turned to good by the good Lord who knows
how to write straight on crooked lines.
We know that all things work together for
good for those who love God, who are called according to his purpose.
(Romans 8:28)
