INTRODUCTION:
In today’s gospel, Jesus is talking to us about relationships. To forgive one another and to pray together. He assures us that He is in our midst and hears us.

PRAYER:
God of love, help me to love others as you love me. Give me the grace to forgive them when they offend me just as you love and forgive me too.

WHAT TO DO (ACTION):
Pray always so that you do not fall into temptations.

QUESTIONS:

  1. Why do we quarrel with our friends sometimes?
  2. What can you do to stop being quarrelsome?
