Feeling Resentful or Hurt?
In Sundays's Gospel, Jesus tells us how we are to act when someone wrongs us. He says: “If your brother/sister commits some wrong against you, go and point out his fault but keep the matter between the two of you.”

Is this what we normally do? Probably not. All too often, we go to others and talk about the issue, seeking to get them on our side. While it is understandable that we would do this, we can see from the above verse of Scripture that such action is a direct violation of God's Word. When we do not act according to God's Word in this area of our lives, we can allow a big resentment to grow within us. This is unhealthy emotionally, spiritually and even physically. (Click here to keep reading Father Eamon's reflection on how to confront an issue rather than letting it stew within us.)

Pope Francis' September Prayer Intention

We are squeezing out the planet’s goods. Squeezing them out, as if the earth were an orange. Countries and businesses from the global north have enriched themselves by exploiting the natural resources of the south, creating an “ecological debt.” Who is going to pay this debt? In addition, this “ecological debt” is increased when multinationals do abroad what they would never be allowed to do in their own countries. It’s outrageous. Today, not tomorrow; today, we have to take care of Creation responsibly. Let us pray that the planet’s resources will not be plundered, but shared in a just and respectful manner. No to plundering; yes to sharing.
