13th Sunday of OT Year C Homily

“No one who sets a hand to the plow and looks to what was left behind is fit for the kingdom of God.” In other words we are called to follow after Christ and through our pursuit of Him we are set free.

Saint Paul instructs that we are to use our freedom not as an opportunity for the flesh, but rather in order to serve one another through love. Generosity allows us to live this freedom.

May we find ways where we can be generous and thus give freely of ourself. The action of giving can be difficult, but its rewards are infinite in letting go of ourself and following after Christ without looking back.
