Daily Gospel: Follow my Rules

The Lord said: "Woe to you Pharisees! You pay tithes of mint and of rue and of every garden herb, but you pay no attention to judgment and to love for God. These you should have done, without overlooking the others.
Woe to you Pharisees! You love the seat of honor in synagogues and greetings in marketplaces.
Woe to you! You are like unseen graves over which people unknowingly walk."
Then one of the scholars of the law said to him in reply, "Teacher, by saying this you are insulting us too."
And he said, "Woe also to you scholars of the law! You impose on people burdens hard to carry, but you yourselves do not lift one finger to touch them.
- Luke 11:42-46

Reflection:
How many times have we established some rules for ourselves yet we still fail to follow them? How many times have we recommended some regulations yet we are the first person to break them. As we continue with this journey, let us continue to remind ourselves that as believers we should be the one following certain rules whether traffic lights, time regulation and even pleas of our parents.
