Come to terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison. Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny.
Guilty as charged? Innocent of charges? Does not love my neighbor rule in either case? Am I not called to demonstrate that the transforming power of the Cross brings me to a point where I must not be concerned about my 'rights' but to bring about a settlement where God is glorified. That will always require a state of repentance and prayerful contrition as I seek the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Today's readings in the Psalms:
