For 14 March 2022, Monday of the second week of Lent, based on Luke 6:36-38
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.’

Thanks, Barbara. We listened to your homily for our community morning prayer. It was so right on.
There are so many ways we can practice mercy. You got us thinking about mercy in our day to day lives.

Dear Barbara, I’m hoping you will see my comment. I don’t know how else to contact you.
I would like permission to copy and paste your moving artwork of Jesus and the women bent over on my blog MargMowczko.com.
If you give me permission, I would have little text other than the Gospel story. The focus would be on your art.
Sincerely
Marg
