The Word of Life
The Words of Jesus
Meditating the Words of Jesus from Holy Scriptures
Someone wishes to go to law with you to get your tunic, let him have your cloak as well. 41 And if anyone requires you to go one mile, go two miles with him. 42 Give to anyone who asks you, and if anyone wants to borrow, do not turn away. (Matthew 5:40–42, NJB)
The world is changing every day, so give sensibly to those who truly need it. Perhaps others can be healed by our comforting words. People who are depressed and rejected can be lifted up by our kind hands and modest attitudes. We can follow and emulate Jesus with complete faith and trust. He is our all-knowing Lord, and we don't need to beg him in a worldly manner to receive the best for us. The Lord is urging us to live a life of prayer and fasting, as well as to be charitable throughout the season of Lent. Fasting is about making the greatest sacrifices, not about what we eat or don't eat.
