This coming weekend we have the story of the woman caught in adultery from the Gospel of John. This powerful moment in Christ's ministry beckons us to change our perspective from condemnation and judgment to compassion, mercy and forgiveness. Lent is all about changing our ways and follow God's way. Will we allow that to happen in our lives?

The parable that we hear this weekend reminds us of how the Gospel is unfair----in a good way. The Story of the Prodigal Son is really a story of the wasteful Father who brings compassion, mercy and life back to his younger son. Lent helps us be wasteful or generously unfair with compassion and love to those who need God's grace, bringing hope. joy and love to those in greatest need.

Lent is a time for us to reflect on whether we are being faithful disciples that bear good fruit for the world. If not, then we need to change and if not enough, we need to do more. Our God offers us many many chances to change and return to him---but there is an urgency on our part to do this quickly and without delay. Let' also help others draw close to the love of Christ!!
