Tuesday the Fish Week of Lent

John 8:21-30

There is a real sense of Hope today.  The community of believers struggled to find the depth of Jesus' messages.  Today, the Pharisees seem to really miss the mark again.  Salvation comes from the forgiving victim.  

Our sinful nature is met with Love and Love wins.  Look at the crucifix.  When we sit and contemplate the mystery of Christ entering the human story as a vulnerable child, suffering as an innocent victim, and rising again we are met with a God who knows what it means to suffer, we have a God who knows what it is like to be fully human and continue to be the Divine image of the Father. 

Jesus met the corruption of humanity head on and tells the people in the gospel that He is the one to follow to salvation.

Sit and take some time to think about the Love that hung on a cross and died, only to defeat the chains of death with more Love than the world can ever imagine.
