Way back in time, the author of Deuteronomy reminded the Hebrews that they were "a people sacred to the Lor:d" chosen from all the nations to be a people peculiarly his own...because God loved them (cf. Deut 7: 6-8). This is meant for us now as we read in today's Gospel that there are things that come from within and cause us to forget the sacred relationship God has established with us. We need to take precautions to avoid a separation from our Creator, one of these being the renewed awareness of our being chosen, selected, by God for this special relationship. Praying the Our Father, an Act of Contrition or the Confiteor during the day can help us remain faithful to our call as chosen people.
