Tuesday of the 15th week year C. Exodus 2:1-15a; Psalm 69; Matthew 11:20-24
Today's meditation focuses on themes of divine providence, the consequences of rejecting God's grace, and the call to repentance.
Exodus 2:1-15a narrates the birth and early life of Moses. Even in dire circumstances, we must rely on God's intervention and protection. That's why the psalmist in Psalm 69 gives us a message of trust and compassion. When we cry unto the Lord, he hears and answers us.
This psalm reflects a plea for rescue from suffering and affirms trust in God's mercy and salvation.
Jesus in the Gospel brings us salvation and warns us as he did with the people of his time, against the rejection of God's compassion, which should always lead to repentance. Our failure to repent in the face of the evidence of God's miraculous love could lead to harsher judgment.
Jesus, I trust in you
