POSTED SEPTEMBER 9, 2020 From the Pastor’s Desk Dear Parishioners, “How often must I forgive?” (Matthew 18:21) Th e question St. Peter presents to Jesus is one I am sure we have all had to contemplate. When another person has hurt us, especially someone close to us, we may struggle to know if there should be a time when enough is enough. Th e readings today help to set up our understanding of the power of forgiveness in our lives and how that forgiveness must be lived out. Psychology and our human wisdom already teach that we are not to harbor grievances: the prophets of the past and present have recommended the wisdom of renouncing the evils of resentment and anger. Sirach calls them, “hateful things.” But notice, this reading, in its argument to forgive, does not appeal to human wisdom, but to our experience of God. Th e last line of the passage is the clue, “...remember the Most High’s covenant, and overlook faults.” Th at seems to sum it up. Th e reason and the power to forgive come from what God has done fi rst for us. He has established a covenant with us. Th at covenant demands from us a response to God’s commands. To live as members of God’s holy people we must take seriously how the Lord teaches us to respond to those around us. Certainly, at times, it can be a struggle and a diffi cult one at that! Th ere are people who have and may continue to hurt us by their actions.
