Secrets

None of us are perfect, but sometimes we pretend to be.

(I myself am very imperfect. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, be merciful to me – a sinner.)

Our Lord’s words in today’s Gospel (Luke 8:16-18) should be heeded carefully.

For there is nothing hidden
that will not become visible,
and nothing secret
that will not be known and come to light.

May the Lord Jesus, who sees every secret of our heart, give us the grace of fuller conversion, repentance, and forgiveness.
