Please read the passage before reading the homily.
My sisters and brothers,
Jesus is the shepherd of his flock. At his birth shepherds came to see the infant Jesus, but how those shepherds the flock for Jesus. The Sacred Scriptures say that Jesus was sent to gather the lost sheep of the House of Israel. Jesus, the shepherd, is seated on the throne of glory to judge the sheep.
The sins that exclude those on the left side of the Shepherd of the flock are: not giving food to the hungry, nor giving drink to the thirsty, not welcoming the stranger, nor clothing the naked, not visiting he sick of those in jail. The sheep Jesus recognizes are those who love their neighbors actively by good works.
Jesus says nothing about sexuality to his flock, but rather asks each member of his flock, “How have your treated mu brothers and sisters?”
Each member of the flock of Christ sees the face of Christ in the face of each person the member meets. We cannot love the God we cannot see unless we love the people we can see.
We need to give life to infants in the womb of their mothers, but it is very important that we likewise provide to those infants the food, the drink, the hospitalization and all the other needs they need for their growth and maturity. Our Shepherd, Jesus, is king of the complete totality of the lives of all the people no matter their age or condition throughout the world.
Jesus, our Shepherd, is seated on the throne of his glory. He comes to look for his sheep and to bring them to the throne of his glory. The Shepherd loves the conversion of his lost sheep with the fruits of their conversion so that he can seat them with himself on the throne of glory.
