Sinners into Saints
Feast of St. Matthew
As Jesus passed by, He saw a man at the customs post and He said to him, “Follow me.”
In other words Jesus saw a tax collector who took advantage of the poor and who oppressed widows and orphans which is what they did back then and is why they were hated by the people.
Now why would Jesus call such a person?
Because grace transforms!
It does not matter who we are or what we have done.
What matters is Who Jesus is and what HE can do!
Matthew knew this and this is why he IMMEDIATELY got up and followed Jesus.
He did not let his sins and shortcomings hold him back from following Jesus.
And neither should we.
Because Jesus just loves taking sinners
And transforming them into saints.
God Bless
