Sixth Ordinary Sunday of Year A
Deacon Bill’s Gospel Reflection on the Gospel theme this Sunday
Is it possible to become as holy and as perfect as God is? Such a thought would seem to be a realm of fantasy. Yet, is it not better to strive for this ideal and fall short rather than never to have tried at all? God did not make us perfect, nor can we suddenly become perfect as God is perfect. But as pilgrims we try to attain that goal, little by little, in what we say and do in his name.
