Why Do We Prefer Being Seen in a Good Light?

Homily from the Thirty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time.

Would you rather be admired? Or loved?

The Day of the Lord is coming. When everything that is true about our hearts will be revealed. What should not be there must be burned up or transformed so that we can be fully known...and fully loved.
