Sunday 21A: "whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven": God reacts to sinful acts by giving to Peter the keys of divine Mercy


For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

The laws of physics are pretty predictable. The laws of human behavior, however, are not. Human reactions are sometimes entirely out of proportion to the event which provokes them. A reaction to a problem can present an entirely new problem in itself and sometimes may take the form of serious sin. Reaction to temptation which is consenting results in a cycle of frustration and unhappiness for the human person.
