What is 'Peter's Pence'? (13th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Pope's Sunday) https://blog.naver.com/daumez/2243290... Jesus says, "You are not worthy." A person who loves their father or mother more than Jesus A person who loves their son or daughter more than Jesus A person who does not carry the cross and follow Jesus—such is the case. This applies to those who do not carry the cross and follow Jesus. Let us not ask, "Is it bad to live for one's family?" Let us first examine what good and fruit we have borne when our love for "family" has grown greater than our love for "Jesus." Jesus tells us not to seek a "shortcut in life" without the "Cross." Rather, He tells us to walk together along the very path He walked. Love for family bears fruit when it is purified and gains life within a relationship with Jesus, and the vitality of life and the answers to life can be encountered when we can embrace the Cross. Everything in Jesus' words often sounds like a "paradox." It seems difficult, arduous, and even impossible. This applies to obedience and humility, mercy and the Cross, and even the Beatitudes. However, Jesus goes further than this. He tells us to lay down our lives and to accept the prophet. Let us remember that we have received the gift of the "prophetic office." The prophet is the Holy Spirit. It helps us to read the present of others from within. Let us examine our love for God. Let us also examine the way we accept the Cross. Above all, let us examine the way we accept one another. Let us remember that the Christian life is ruined by the 'inability to accept.' Let us never forget today's message. "Whoever accepts you accepts me, and whoever accepts me accepts him who sent me. Whoever accepts a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and whoever accepts a righteous man because he is righteous will receive a righteous man's reward." (Matthew 10:40-41) https://blog.naver.com/daumez/2243290...
