22nd Sunday of Ordinary Time: What's our Attitude towards the Laws of the Church?

Our Sunday readings today focus on the Law. It's helpful for us to see how Moses rejoices in the laws that God gives to Israel, and he says that the nations around Israel will consider Israel to be blessed because of how God has spoken to them through the Law. The question for us this week is, 'How do we receive the laws given to us by the Church?' Do we receive them negatively -- with skepticism or indifference or disdain? Or do we receive them as God wants us to receive them -- with gratitude for this gift that actually promotes freedom and shows us how precious we are in His sight?
