Wednesday of Week 11 in Ordinary Time

 

 

 

Beware of practicing your righteousness.
In front of other people in order to be seen by them.
Practice mindfulness.
We are not greater but less than them.

When you give to the needy .
Sound no trumpet.
One day we ourselves may be needy.
Will we like it when they sound the trumpet.

When you give to the needy.
Do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.
Just do good and be steady.
Caring, helping.

We say all this.
But do we do all this.

……

Give to the needy
But of course sound no trumpet
That is the best way

……

See Mathew 6: 1-6 and 16-18
