IN THE EYES OF OUR FATHER, PURE LENTEN OBSERVANCE IS THIS: SUBDUE YOUR BODY THROUGH THE POWER OF PRAYER, FASTING AND ALMSGIVING. FORGIVE AND YOU WILL BE FORGIVEN.
"Jesus said to his disciples: “You have heard that it was said, You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.......
And if you greet your brothers and sisters only, what is unusual about that? Do not the pagans do the same? So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.” (Matthew 5: 43.....48).Saturday 12th March 2022, in the 1st Week in Lent.
To love your friends and hate those who hate you is a natural behavior. No one teaches a child this crude behavior. The behavior is natural to fallen human nature as lying,cheating, etc. But as Christians, have you not heard? "Love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you."
Jesus challenges us to be different from the unbelieving world:
"Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will." (Cf Romans 12: 2 ).If you are today conforming to the habits and customs of the world, realize that on your own, you can never break out of this prison. The Holy Spirit, your Helper and Advocate is standing by to help you. He accomplishes this transformation when you ask for His help, become faithful and constant in daily prayer and daily nourishment with the word of God.
How long will it take for this transformation to happen? It depends on the intensity of your desire and the constancy of your prayer and study of the word of God. To those who manifest a great hunger for God, more will be given them and the transformation will be quick. To those who are lukewarm, the little they have will be snatched from them.
