Heartfelt Mercy

Feast of the Holy Family
Clothe yourselves with heartfelt mercy (Colossians 3:12)


Pope Francis calls us to a yearlong reflection on Mercy.  To clothe oneself in heartfelt mercy is the title of the recipe...but there is a long list of ingredients.  Paul concludes this passage by calling for all our "speech and action" to be done, not in our own names but in the name of the one who sends us.  In Christ...Mercy just is!  So...all I have to do is stop confusing my name with Christ's!!!
