The Lord has made known his salvation.

Reflection from Dynamic Catholic

"Feelings are visitors of the heart. Each feeling comes to teach you something very specific. Be hospitable to these guests. They are only passing through. But they will stay until you attend to them." - Matthew Kelly, Life is Messy

Gospel

Mt 5:38-42

Jesus said to his disciples:
“You have heard that it was said,
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
But I say to you, offer no resistance to one who is evil.
When someone strikes you on your right cheek,
turn the other one to him as well.
If anyone wants to go to law with you over your tunic,
hand him your cloak as well.
Should anyone press you into service for one mile,
go with him for two miles.
Give to the one who asks of you,
and do not turn your back on one who wants to borrow.”
