A Daily Reflection:
Our Gospel for today fits into this season of Lent as it is about sin and redemption. We are called to understand that sin enslaves us and Jesus through his dying on the Cross frees us from sin. That does not mean that we do not sin it means that when we sin we have a way out of sin and that is through Jesus Christ. If we follow the steps of Jesus we follow the steps towards life not death. may you and yours continue to weather the storm of this pandemic and I will keep you in my prayers please keep me in yours.
