Choosing Good Fruit

For 23 June 2021, Wednesday of week 12 in Ordinary Time , based on Matthew 7:15-20
Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will know them by their fruits.

Thanks Marianne, for your reflective and challenging preaching! Wishing you could offer it as an Opening Prayer/ Reflection for a morning session of our US Congress. However, it has and will be received by many hearts!

Marianne, Your preaching is a very keen integration of the Gospel acclamation with the Gospel
passage ~ a truly contemplative one. Thank you.

Thanks Marianne,
Thought provoking and very real to what we can become when reflection is lost in our life.
