Monday First Week of Lent

Matthew 25: 31-46   
"This is where the rubber meets the road."  "Actions speak louder than words" "The proof is in the pudding"  This gospel reading is at the heart of the Maria House Project and indeed the rule base for the Brothers of St. Dismas.  (which is an awesome life!!) 
It is the place we transform our mind and heart from the selfish to the selfless, we switch from an exclusive mindset to the inclusive, and we meet the Divine face to face.   
Take this gospel and LIVE IT!!  Practice being human and grow spiritually. When we look in the eyes of those we pass or meet, when we shake their hand, when we listen and speak to those on The Way, remember that we are where we are by the Grace of God and it is His will we are where we are. Our life becomes Gods' mission at work.  events are more than just "happenstance" or "luck", whether good or bad they are Gods' will and we have a role to play and that role is to surrender our will to His.
