Reflection Date: September 3, 2021
In today's Gospel, it is observed that while John's disciples and the Pharisees fast often, Jesus' disciples eat and drink. Jesus replies to them that people do not fast when the bridegroom is with them.
Let us pray that we may experience the sacrament of reconciliation with renewed depth, to taste the forgiveness and infinite mercy of God. And let us pray that God may give his Church merciful priests and not torturers.
