Perhaps the most important part of this week’s gospel passage for us to take along with us on our Lenten journey are the words of the Father directed to Jesus, but also directed to His disciples. “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him.” As beloved sons and daughters of teh Father, how are we listening to His Son, Jesus? Yes, we must listen to His commandments and the teachings of His Church, but how are we listening to His words directed to us? We will never hear our Lord if we never make time for Him. To make that extra effort this Lent for prayerful contemplation may give us the word we need so that our penance may have meaning and our Easter may bring us great joy.
Adults: What can you do this eek to make time to hear what Jesus is directing you to do?
Children: How can you make more time for Jesus?
