Wednesday of the Twenty-fourth Week in Ordinary Time
It is sure hard to please a Pharisee. St. John the Baptist was fasting and they thought he was nuts, Jesus ate and drank and they said he was a drunkard and glutton. Nothing was good enough for them. They didn't even think they were holy men, let alone a prophet and the Messiah.
What this means to us is that we have to be prepared for what God has in store for us, even if it is different than what we expect. It can be hard to accept sometimes, but God knows that it is for our own good. So let's just learn to do what God wants us to do.
