The Oblate Family Morning Prayer: Sunday 23rd February 2025

With Roberto Forti

Good morning, welcome to our Oblate Family Morning Prayer. Today we join Roberto Forti from his home in Crewe, Cheshire, on Sunday 23rd February 2025, the 7th Sunday in Ordinary Time. 

‘Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.’

Roberto reflects:  “Jesus is telling us to imitate the Father’s mercy. ‘Be merciful, just as your father is merciful.’ His mercy is not about withholding punishment, but about actively seeking the good of others, even when they don’t deserve it. When we choose to love everyone, also those that don’t love us, we reflect the act of God. “

Thank you for joining us for morning prayer today!
