Reflections
GOSPEL:
Matthew 9:9-13
Matthew was a tax collector who was doing
his everyday job when Jesus called him.
The Jews of Jesus’ time did not like
the tax collectors, because the tax
collectors were Jews who were working for
the Romans. The taxes were taken to help
Rome maintain the soldiers and the roads
needed to occupy the land. The people who
considered themselves righteous had
nothing to do with people who helped the
Romans in this way. Jesus was reminded of
this when they asked why he was bothering
with these collaborators. Jesus responded
with the words of Hosea that we have just
read: “I desire mercy, not
sacrifice.” Mercy means that no one
is beneath us, no one is beneath our
notice, our concern, our care, our
prayers, or God’s redeeming
love.
1.) How
do you think Matthew felt when he was
called by Jesus?
2.) How
can you share this attitude of mercy
toward others? How can you give someone a
break this
week?
