Reconciliation

Reconciling opposing parties is difficult, as we see daily in our headlines. Factions, countries, neighbors seem to be constantly slinging it out without an progress toward a peaceful settlement In our own lives, there are smaller versions of this scenario.  In today's Gospel, Jesus directs us to speak directly to the person who has faulted us, or, if necessary, to gather others to help. If none of this works, then leave the situation.  Sounds easy on paper, but not so easy to do.  Praying over the matter leads to surprising results....Would it help if Jesus were present?  No question.  Then ask him.
