Busy day for me today and for the man.
Today Bacci addressed “The Blessedness of Those Who Hunger & Thirst for Justice” you can find it on page 476 of his Meditations for Each Day. Mt 5:6 Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied. These words oblige us to seek justice in our actions if we desire the happiness which, Our Lord promises to the just. Justice is a Cardinal Virtue and obliges us to give every man his due. Mt 6:33 But seek first the kingdom [of God] and his righteousness,* and all these things will be given you besides. Justice in our relations with God demands that we adore, love, and obey Him. This is how we lay the foundation of all the virtues. We must also be just with ourselves. If passions rebel and dethrone reason or if reason revolts against God, degradation of the human nature, the triumph of sin, remorse, and spiritual ruin ensues. We must be just in our dealings with others. NO theft, homicide, detraction, calumny, or hatred of our neighbor. Difficult as it will be. We’ve got a long, and at times difficult (what may seem impossible) road to walk. Let us do that with Jesus.
Know you are prayed for.
