Jerusalem Bible (Go) 9. He spoke the following parable
to some people who prided themselves on being upright and despised everyone
else, 10. 'Two men went up to the Temple
to pray, one a Pharisee, the other a tax collector. 11. The Pharisee stood there and
said this prayer to himself, "I thank you, God, that I am not grasping,
unjust, adulterous like everyone else, and particularly that I am not like this
tax collector here. 12. I fast twice a week; I pay
tithes on all I get."
13. The tax collector stood some
distance away, not daring even to raise his eyes to heaven; but he beat his
breast and said, "God, be merciful to me, a sinner." 14. This man, I tell you, went
home again justified; the other did not. For everyone who raises himself up
will be humbled, but anyone who humbles himself will be raised up.'
My thoughts : Come Holy Spirit ,
help me to live a Christ crucified for love of me. God give me wisdom to say
nothing more that I can talk you need guided by your Holy Spirit and my words
are yours and sword that pierces hearts, and humility that only you can give
infect everyone already this useless serve and sinful so that with one word,
with just one glance of your eyes heal me, because you want and your mercy is
great Lord.
