Feb 21, 2005 Lk 6:36-38

Jesus said to his disciples: "Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

"Stop judging and you will not be judged. Stop condemning and you will not be condemned.
Forgive and you will be forgiven. Give and gifts will be given to you;
a good measure, packed together, shaken down, and overflowing, will be poured into your lap.
For the measure with which you measure will in return be measured out to you."

The measure which I use to share what I have with others will be used to measure what I will receive from others. My gifts, forgiveness, understanding
will all come back to me in the amount that I have shared and given.
