Go simply with your possessions

Judas, the Betrayer.  Not your usual subject for a series of reflections.  But perhaps Judas wasn’t so dissimilar to the rest of us.  Was he just an enthusiastic radical, looking for something new, longing for justice and liberation?

 

Tomorrow starts the second week in Lent.  As we spend this week journeying with Judas,

Let’s commit ourselves to inner and outer simplicity,

letting go our ‘right’ to self-fulfillment

while our façade covers up our poverty of spirit;

setting aside our ‘right’ to affluence

while there are still those who live in abject poverty.
