Dear friends in Christ, N'wokafu YESU KRISTO...
This morning, we are presented with the call of Abraham in the First Reading as part of our reflection for the Second Sunday of Lent.
Abram, later called Abraham, left everything behind — including the stability and security of his homeland, one of the sophisticated cities of the ancient world — to follow an unknown path to an unknown land.
At God’s command, Abraham embarked on a journey full of uncertainties. The only thing that was clear about his journey was the directive to leave.
Beloved, God demands faith and trust from us more than knowledge. He often does not reveal the path or the destination. He simply asks us to leave — and to journey with Him in faith and complete trust — hoping, as the psalmist says in the Responsorial Psalm, that His mercy will be upon us as we place our trust in Him.
As we continue our Lenten journey, may we choose the way of faith and trust over the need to understand every detail of God’s process in our lives.
PRAYER
Lord, give me the courage to respond positively to you even when I do not know where or the path on which you are taking me. Amen.
May God bless you.
