Different Forms

"The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, slow to anger and of great kindness." (Psalm 103:8)
Today's commemoration is for Luke, the evangelist.  Luke's work shows us God's compassion, for God gave Luke such an important mission: to spread the gospel as a gentile.  There are no limits to God's will: whatever God wants happens.  We should go by that example and listen to what God has in store for each one of us.  At the same time, we must respect those who have these missions.  We may not like that a certain person may not look a certain way but preach the good news.  We may not be used to somebody who lives a certain way to give us the message.  We must accept God's message, for in its different forms it teaches us.
