28th Week, Ordinary Time, Wednesday, 13-10-2021

Romans 2:1-11 / Luke 11:42-46     

The jigsaw puzzle is an interesting concept.

It is made up of many small  parts and when all the parts and joined together properly, then the whole big can be seen.

Usually the jigsaw puzzle would have the picture on the package that it came in. 

That would give an idea of what picture would be when all the pieces are joined together.

But there are times when would just come in a bag without any pictures, for some reason.

That would make it difficult but at the same time also interesting.

We won't know what the big picture is like until all the pieces are put together.

But as w join the pieces one by one, we will slowly come to see what the big picture is going to be like.

In the gospel, Jesus told the Pharisees that they pay tithe on mind and rue and all sorts of garden herbs and overlook the justice and love of God.

The Pharisees took the pieces one by one but did not join them to see the big picture of justice and love.

May we see that in all the little things that we do, it must be done for the love and glory of God.

Then we will be able to see the big picture and life and how others and connected to us in justice and love.
