Readings for the 30th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Exodus 22:20-26; Matthew 22:34-40
We do Jesus a disservice to think that he did not deal with the many struggles we have to deal with today. He went from conflict to conflict - and we see another one today. Once again, the Pharisees are trying to trap him. But once again, he sidesteps their efforts. And in doing so, Jesus gives us a new law. But the difference is that this law invites us into the stew. This law needs us to discern and step out in faith. This law is not external and merely seeks our obedience. This law is internal - and leads us to relationship and the building up of the body. All it costs is our willingness to be stretched beyond who we are right now. And that can be a steep price.
