Excuses
When a person is pulled over by a policeman
Usually that person begins to think of an excuse
For breaking the speed limit.
It is no different with the laws of the Church.
We can often come up with excuses why we did not attend Mass
Or keep the commandments.
And Jesus reminds us that He did not come to abolish the law but to fulfill it. Mt. 5:17.
If Jesus did not offer excuses but sought instead to fulfill the law,
Then maybe we should not either.
Instead we should strive to fulfill the law as He did.
And then we shall be called “Great” in the Kingdom of Heaven.
God Bless
