Standing in the Breach with Jesus - Daily Gospel Reflection
Daily Gospel Reflection on Veritas Catholic Network
Today’s Reading is from Exodus 32:7-14. Moses has been up on the mountain the people cry out for a “god” lower-case g. Aaron makes the golden calf, and God tells us Moses He is going to destroy the people. Then it says Moses, “stands in the breach”. He intercedes and asks for mercy from God. This is exactly what Jesus does, standing in the “breach” between the sinfulness of us and the holiness of God, imploring mercy for us. Not only this, He does it even now. May we too stand in the breach with Jesus, asking for God’s mercy on the world.
