Deep down we long for mercy. We desire mercy more
than a thirsty man longs for cool water. Yet there is a
problem. We desire mercy but we don't want to do the one
thing necessary to receive mercy: admit we've done
something wrong. A presidential candidate says he has
"never asked God for forgiveness. "This candidate is known
for saying what other people think. We have to grant he
does say something we tend to think: (whining voice)
I haven't done anything wrong. In the case of the
presidential candidate other people might view things
differently. Perhaps his past wives think he did something
wrong. It's easy of course to see other peoples failings, hard
to see our own. People near could tells us faults we hesitate
to recognize.
My point is not to lay a guilt trip. No, what I want is
this: That you and I receive the greatest gift - mercy.
Jesus came to bring that gift. He did it in the supreme way
this week: with his suffering of love - his apparent defeat
(the cross) became victory. After announcing that victory,
St. Peter says, "Everyone who believes in him will receive
forgiveness of sins in his name. "How does this work? How
does the resurrection bring mercy and forgiveness?
In a similar way the Resurrection of Jesus restores us.
We hear Jesus say, "It is I. I live. “Then, in spite of our sin,
the Father says, "you are my son.” The resurrection of Jesus
means that our sins are forgiven. That's what Peter tells us.
From the grave Jesus has risen whole and glorious. Now:
"Everyone who believes in him will receive forgiveness of
sins though his name." His mercy is without end. Open
yourself to the greatest gift - mercy.

those who love us to.
