In the first reading we are told, “We should not stay way from our assembly,” rather, by attending we
“must consider how to rouse one another
to love and good works.”
At times we all feel a need for encouragement and
appreciation. Well, Jesus, in the Gospel tells us, “The measure with which you measure will be measured to you.”
When the Bible speaks of measures, older people and people
from other countries are heartened by memories. We recall friendly country storekeepers in their white aprons. In scooping up the grain or peanuts we purchased they
would get the measure right,. Then they’d dig in for another scoop just for
“Good measure.”
Our gatherings should have a warm wholesomeness that sends
folks home smiling, and quite ready
for another day.
