Right is Right and Wrong is Wrong: Family Reflection Video

Strengthening family unity

Why do we continue to struggle between right and wrong? We want to do what’s right but are confused why we don’t.

It’s as if we are a mystery to ourselves! But don’t despair. We have a way to seek understanding and healing: Jesus, our foundation and the blueprint for our thoughts and actions each day.

We are blessed with the opportunity to learn what is right from the teachings of Jesus, the ability to go to Confession to begin again, and the promise of the grace to sort out all that we face today.

As a family, discuss how you can work each day to resist sin. You might each want to reflect on the question, have I put my best efforts into doing what is right today? How can I better follow Jesus’ example tomorrow?

May God bless you and your family members today with the strength to resist sin and do what is right!
