Saturday of Week 14 in Ordinary Time

For everything that is now covered will be uncovered.
And everything now hidden will be made clear.
Is one’s old life contemptible and needing to be severed.
How else to be released from all fear.
I am reading Tolstoy’s novel Resurrection.
And of Nekhlyodov’s spiritual awakening.
How can he escape  society’s selfish convention.
Only in confronting his past with chastening.In this novel everything moves and inspires.
Even the very first page will people welcome  nature.
No they will insist on following their ego’s desires.
And torturing each other as just another creature.

But whatever we do the Master intervenes.
He opens our conscience by unexpected means.

.. …..

Everything covered
Will be uncovered in time
By our own conscience

See Matthew 10 : 24-33
