How can you bring peace on earth?

Thursday of the 33rd Week in Ordinary Time

Fr. Ron shares one of his favorite hymns… Let There Be Peace on Earth and how it relates to today’s gospel where Jesus weeps over Jerusalem over seeing its future destruction. He weeps over the death of sinners but also the death of children.

Fr. Ron reflects on how Jesus much continue to weep over the wars and divisions that are still going on today in the world and our own families.

We need to let go of self-righteousness and be more forgiving and putting others first and let go of our prejudice in order to make for peace.
