Tuesday of week 1 in Ordinary Time
First reading – Hebrews 2:5-12
Jesus experienced everything we have to experience so that we can be part of His glory. God wanted to give back the joy to which we were created and which we lost with our sin. When the humanity chooses to move away from God with the choices contrary to God, we lost our glory to be with God. When Jesus Christ with His choice to become one among us, like us, and to make our destiny His destiny, the whole thing changed. He did the reparation for our sins and our choices. Our errors were corrected through his suffering. Our sins were repaired through his suffering. Jesus Christ redeemed us. His suffering saved us. Because in His suffering, He eliminated the role of ego and selfishness. We made the wrong choices not to suffer and we erred. Jesus loved us and decided to suffer for us to make right our errors. With His love He saved us. His love which purifies our selfish love with His sacrifice sanctifies us. Jesus Christ is the center of our life. Let’s reflect: It’s important to understand the role of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ in our life to make our love selfless.
