Saturday of the First Week of Lent

Be perfect as the heavenly Father is perfect. (Today's Gospel).

Herein is the radical message of Jesus Christ. Think about it. Christ sets the bar as high as he could. He calls for perfection. He calls for a new behavior. Love your enemies and those who don't like you. Pray for those who persecute you and talk about you behind your back.
There is THE challenge. Just to bring yourself around to do what Jesus asks.
This Christianity "stuff" is not for the weak of heart.
...a good Lenten examen for each of us.

Pax et bonum.
