概要
At the heart of today’s readings is a quiet but searching question: What kind of obedience actually reflects a life shaped by God, as Exodus 19–20 and Matthew 18:21–35 both press beyond outward behavior and draw attention to the posture of the heart that stands behind it?
In Exodus, God speaks to Israel at a pivotal moment, not as a distant lawgiver, but as the One who has already brought them out of slavery, inviting them into a way of life where commands flow from relationship and freedom is sustained by loyalty, trust, and attention to Him.
Jesus carries that same concern into everyday relationships, revealing how easily people can appear faithful on the surface while withholding mercy, forgiveness, and humility beneath it, exposing the tension between correct actions and hearts that remain guarded or unchanged.
Together, these passages create space to reflect on whether faith has become primarily about what we do, or whether our hearts are still being shaped by the God who continues to speak, lead, and invite His people into deeper relationship rather than mere compliance.
