Our Life Must Constantly Move Toward God in Repentance and Seeking His Mercy

Our Life Must Constantly Move Toward God in Repentance and Seeking His Mercy
In the first reading we hear from scripture that exiled Israelites believe they are suffering and in exile because of the sins of their parents.
They believed they are suffering because of their parents. The blame game is an old game that continues today. Others are the cause of our misery. Adam and Eve played this game as well. Hear more about the evil one and the blame game within the Homily.
Despite this blame game, God tells us . . . enough. You will not be judged for other’s sins. You will be judged by the actions of your own life. We must take responsibility for our own sins . . . for our own actions.
God invites us to receive His mercy. To receive mercy, we must move towards God. The first lesson from God in scripture: we must repent for our own sins. Hear about the additional lessons and what we must do in our own spiritual life within the Homily.
