First Reading — Warn the wicked and try to turn them from their ways (Ezekiel 33:7-9).

Psalm — If today you hear his voice, harden not your hearts (Psalm 95).

Second Reading — Owe nothing to anyone, except mutual love (Romans 13:8-10).

Gospel — If two agree about anything for which they pray, it shall be granted to them (Matthew

18:15-20).

A MESSAGE OF LOVE In the final verses of today’s Gospel reading Jesus says that

when two or three are gathered in his name, “there am I in the

midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). So we understand that fraternal

correction is always undertaken with Jesus present to us.

Likewise, encouraging the good in others is not only the right

thing for us to do, it is a necessity. The Lord tells the prophet Ezeki-

el that if he “does not speak out” to dissuade a person from evil,

then he too will be held responsible.

We live in a “do your own thing” age when moral objectivity is

often ignored. Clearly when the message we share with others is

one of love, our motives cannot ever be misinterpreted. As St. Paul

writes, “Love does no evil to the neighbor; hence, love is the fulfill-

ment of the law” (Romans 13:10).
