You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery;'                but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.                If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                'It was also said, 'Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,'                but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.                'Again you have heard that it was said to them of old time, 'You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,'                but I tell you, don't swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;                nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.                Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can't make one hair white or black.                But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes' and your 'No' be 'No.' Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.                'You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'*                But I tell you, don't resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.                If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also.                Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.                Give to him who asks you, and don't turn away him who desires to borrow from you.                'You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor,* and hate your enemy.*'                But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,                that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven.

Love One Another



There was a time when I didn’t fully appreciate the value of Holy Mass, the Sacrament of Confession, and the grace of belonging to Jesus.

 

Your magazine removed the scales from my eyes. It taught me how to trust in God. Now I go to confession filled with faith. I attend Mass with a spirit of intense devotion. After Communion, I experience moments of blissful peace.
 
At work I am less given to quarrelsomeness. I tend to be less conceited, grasping and obstinate. I am able to show greater humility and more kindness. I want to be helpful and share my goods with others. My dreams are also more peaceful. Everywhere I go, I see the Father’s many graces. This sense of closeness with God remains with me all day and keeps bringing me back to the Sacrament. My desire to receive Jesus is so strong that I go to Mass every day. When I am unable to go, I miss Him very much. My close bond with Him seems to weaken somehow. Daily Communion helps me to be patient and pure. I try to pray all the time and ask God for the grace not to sin, so that I can receive the Eucharist as often as possible. Jesus heals not only our souls but also our bodies, only we must desire this very much!
