Today we celebrate the 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time. In the Ordinary Time we realize that all we are brothers and sisters and our every day rule is to love each other. Love is the consequence of the looking on others by our own perspective. We need the help in our time of existence. Christ Jesus came into the world to save us and others too. And this is the Good News for all of us. Because we can find ourselves in the group of people whom Jesus loves and saves.
The Eucharist is the special meeting with Jesus for all who are brothers and sisters. We come to Jesus to praise him and to become holy by his grace. This is the simple aim of our every Sunday coming to the Church. To encourage others to praise God and to be better by the loving power of Jesus is our privilege and we have to do this because we are the disciples of Christ.
