Joy! by Sr. Leticia// Passages:
“Now, the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
Then Jesus told them this parable: “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbours together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’
I tell you that in the same way, there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent. .”
Luke 15: 1-7
“Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our certainty that, when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved.”
Pope Francis,
Evangelium Gaudium, 6.
