Choose wisely; Live fully! | Matthew 5:17-37 drcop2019@gmail.com | Divine Spark | Satyagiri Dominican Retreat Center I Igatpuri I Nashik I Mob +91 703 8737877 | "If you choose, you can keep the commandments..." (Sirach 15:15). In this homily, we explore the profound connection between the First Reading from Sirach and Jesus' teaching in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:17-37). God has placed before us fire and water, life and death—and the choice is ours. But choosing "life" isn't just about avoiding sin; it's about choosing to love fully. Jesus challenges us to move beyond the minimum requirements of the law and embrace a higher standard of righteousness. In this reflection: The Power of Free Will: How Sirach 15 reminds us that holiness is a choice, not an accident. Beyond the Minimum: Why Jesus demands more than just "following the rules." Anger, Lust, and Integrity: Applying the "fullness of life" to our relationships and speech. Don't settle for a mediocre spiritual life. Choose wisely and live fully.
