6th Sunday in Ordinary Time (A)



Readings: Sirach 15: 15-20; 1 Corinthians 2: 6-10; Matthew 5: 17-37

Selected Passage: “For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and the Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” (Mt. 5: 20)

Meditation:  The real challenge of the Christian message is not simply to perform what the Law requires but to do MORE.  This echoes what the Lord said of giving not only our shirt but our cloak as well or walking the extra mile!  The other way of understanding what is BEYOND the virtues of the Scribe and the Pharisee is to LOVE not only our friends but also our enemies, as well. And we measure our love not by words and rituals by our concrete deeds.

DHIKR SIMPLE METHOD

1st step: Write the text or Dhikr (the Arabic word for REMEMBRANCE) in your heart.
2nd step: Let the text remain always in on your lips and mind - RECITING the text silently as often as possible...
3rd step:  Be attentive to the disclosure of the meaning/s of the text in your life.
