I was Naked and You Clothed Me - Homily for 23 February 2026
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
Our Mother the Church makes us read the story Our dear Lord gave us about the Last Judgment. The king will gather everyone and group them like sheep and goats. He positioned the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. Then, he asked them what they did to him. They were puzzled by that questioning because they do not recall having encountered him. But the king surprises them. He identifies himself with the least of our brethren, i.e., the sick, the naked, the hungry, the thirsty, and so forth. Those who attended to those in need are invited to their reward. These were the sheep. The goats, however, did not attend to the needs of those who did not have food, drink, care, company, and so forth. So they got their just deserts away from the king and his kingdom.
