The theme for the third Sunday of the Lent is REPENTANCE.
First Sunday of Lent we reflected on the Temptation of Jesus, Second was about Transfiguration. Reflection on the theme of Repentance this week, we need to remember how worst sinner could I be God never gives up on me. God never gave up: God has promised never to give up on us. All of the Scriptures Old and New Testaments together are a record of how God never, never, never, never, never gives up. - Adam and Eve disobeyed the very First Rule. But God never gave up. - Abraham wandered, and Sarah laughed. But God never gave up. - Moses hid and shook with fear. But God never gave up. - Saul went insane. But God never gave up. - David plotted against Uriah. But God never gave up. - Ahaz sold out to Assyria. But God never gave up. - Israel fell into pieces. But God never gave up. - The Jewish people became exiles. But God never gave up. - John the Baptist was beheaded. But God never gave up. - Peter denied he even knew Jesus, and Judas betrayed Him for 30 pieces of silver. But God never gave up. - The disciples all ran away. But God never gave up. Let Trust in the mercy of God, who heals all our wounds.
