Today’s Gospel Reading is Matthew 19:16-22. A rich young man approaches Jesus to ask what he must do to inherit the Kingdom of God. Jesus tells him to keep the commandments, which the young man meets with enthusiasm because he’s already doing that. But Jesus tells him there’s one thing he lacks. To sell all he has, give it to the poor, and follow Him. The young man goes away sad, for he has many possessions.
Remember, Jesus looks at this man with love even though he lacks something. He offers the young man an invitation, and even though he walks away saddened, take note that Jesus doesn’t revoke his invitation. There’s no such thing as too late.
Jesus continues to look at us with Love and to invite us to follow after Him, let us today pray for the grace to respond to Jesus’s merciful invitation by following Him.
