The real poor are aware of relationship needs


The texts from the Roman Catholic Lectionary today offer advice for enduring tribulation and developing relationships. Paul advises the Corinthians about patient endurance in a world which is passing away. Marcia Shadle-Cusic probes our sense of relatedness to others through our need for the other in our life. The Beatitudes in the Gospel of Luke are thought by Friar Jude Winkler to be the more original. The blessings and curses are in the Hebrew format in Deuteronomy. The real poor and real hungry hold unto Jesus for dear life. When we are self satisfied we find in hard sometimes to address the void in our lives that only a relationship with Jesus can fill.
