Rivonia Catholic Church
A repentant sinner who turns to God is more pleasing to him than a hypocrite who only pretends to be righteous. Matthew 21:28-32
Prayer
​
Loving Father,
You are the source of all
health and comfort.
Look with Mercy on those
in our community who are suffering from illness,
pain, or anxiety.
Grant them the healing
power of Your grace,
strengthen their caregivers,
and fill their hearts with
Your peace.
Amen
In this Sunday's Gospel (Matthew 21:28-32), Jesus uses this simple story to expose a challenging truth: God values a messy, repentant “yes” over a polished, superficial promise.
It is easy to fall into the trap of the second son, coming to Mass, saying the right responses, and giving God mere lip service, while our hearts remain unchanged. True faith is measured by our actions, not just our words.
The good news is that it is never too late for a change of heart. No matter how many times we have said “no” to God through our sins or neglect, His invitation to enter the vineyard is renewed today.
