God Is Either Your Father or Your Judge – Tuesday of the 3rd Week of Lent

About this sermon

During Lent, the Church calls us to deeper reflection, repentance, and awareness of God's presence. In this powerful Lenten meditation, we contemplate Christ’s words: “Wherever two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” (Matthew 18:20) God is always present everywhere. Yet this reflection reminds us of a profound spiritual truth: God is present to us either as a loving Father or as a just Judge. Drawing from St. Augustine and the wisdom of the Church Fathers, this meditation explores: • The constant presence of God • Why remembering God protects us from sin • How forgetting God leads souls into darkness • Why Christians must live always under the eyes of God • The choice every soul must make: Father or Judge Lent is the time to return to God, renew our awareness of His presence, and live as true children of our Heavenly Father. May this reflection help you grow in fear of God, gratitude, humility, and deeper love during this holy season of Lent. 🙏 If this meditation helped you, please: • Like the video • Subscribe for more Catholic reflections • Share it with someone observing Lent 0:00 Introduction 0:13 Christ’s Words: Where Two or Three Gather 0:26 The Apostles Dispute Over Primacy 0:44 Christ Teaches Humility 1:07 God Present When We Gather in His Name 1:33 God Present as Father or Judge 2:14 St. Augustine on God's Presence 3:03 God Is Everywhere 3:45 “You Were Within Me, But I Was Outside” 4:00 The Soul as the Temple of God 4:47 Every Blessing Comes From God 5:24 Constant Gratitude to Our Heavenly Father 5:44 The Danger of Forgetting God 6:12 The Ark and the Raven Analogy 6:37 The Power of Remembering God 7:11 Forgetting God Leads to Sin 8:18 Turning Away from God by the Will 8:34 Living as Children of God 9:14 God Present as Judge 9:30 God Sees Every Hidden Sin 10:05 The Boldness of Sin Before God 11:07 Respect for Men vs. Fear of God 11:25 God's Justice Punishes Sin 11:53 The Folly of Trying to Escape God 12:24 Choosing: Father or Judge 12:39 Conclusion To donate to the Church Restoration Project in Ireland please visit https://gofundme.com/restore-immaculate 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Follow the Institute of Christ the King on...
