I was just discussing w/ my daughters the other day about this Sunday's reading. As were driving home, there was a homeless man pushing a shopping cart and I asked my oldest (11) what she thought about him and she said he was indeed, a weirdo. She had seen him pushing his cart around the outskirts of her school. But then I asked her, what would Jesus do today w/ this man. Would he not stop him and ask him about his aluminum cans? Would he not tell him about a metal so precious that not all the cans in the world would be of equal value? She agreed he would approach him, sit w/ him, and maybe even go w/ him to the Recycling Center. This Lent season, let us reach out to someone who is unlovable, untouchable--someone w/ AIDS, homeless, or drug user, maybe in prison and give them the embrace of our LORD. rob I did not know that, AWESOME.
