From Father Greg
Dear Friends,
Jesus is the Messiah people needed, but not what they wanted. They were looking for a Messiah who would make them all-powerful. They did not expect or want a suffering servant. Jesus foretells of his necessary suffering and death in today’s Gospel (Matthew 16:21-27).
I think this is a warning to us all about the power of temptation and how it can come to us in many different ways, sometimes very subtle. Do you think you can resist temptation without the help of God? To even think that way is a temptation.
Note that Jesus was tempted after he was baptized. Don’t think that just because you are baptized, you won’t be tempted. We need what God has to offer to us. We need to pray, “Deliver us in times of temptation.”
One temptation is to get so busy with life that we think that working, doing chores, parenting, caretaking, and/or volunteering every waking moment is what God wants. Sometimes we are tempted to get too busy to pray.
Thank you for coming to Mass and being a source of inspiration for each other as we pray together and become the Body of Christ.
Peace,
Fr. Greg
