Fifth Sunday of Lent March 28, 2004 |
Isaiah 43:16-21 Phil 3:8-14 John 8:1-11 |
| Scripture |
| "Jesus simply bent down and started tracing on the ground with his finger." |
| Reflection |
| I might not be so quick to pick up a stone to throw at the woman caught in adultery, but I sure would be likely to throw stones or words or negative energy at those who were so fast to judge and condemn. Could I ever be as calm and tranquil as Jesus? Could I ever be as patient and just wait for folks to realize the errors of their own ways? Looking at Jesus tracing on the ground, can I learn to invite others to be their best selves, or am I too busy judging and condemning those who would throw stones? |
| Mantra |
| Nor do I condemn you |
