Prepare for an emotional roller coaster. The great and holy week begins with the cheers and seeming triumph of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. No sooner, however, do we say, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord" than we realize we have been ushered to the foot of the cross and the darkness of the shocking outcome of His coming – suffering, hatred, blood, and death. Our joyful, hopeful expectations have been dashed and we have been reduced to despair. This is what John the Baptist meant when he called us to repent. So He will take the repentant, tearful soul and restore life in the resurrection, life even better than we had ever dreamed or hoped. Life doesn't always turn out the way you expect! Thanks be to God!

When Jesus entered time and space He was rejected, much as the son of the vineyard owner in His parable. But by His death and resurrection, Christ has become the cornerstone of the Church; in His infinite mercy He has opened our hearts so that we may know Him and the salvation He brings. In our Lenten journey today we focus on the great things God has done for us.

The prodigal son in Jesus' parable is surprised by the undeserved welcome and complete forgiveness of his father's open arms. For us, who have been given faith to trust in Christ, Paul writes that "the old has passed away; behold, the new has come." Like the prodigal, we were lost, but we have been found. For Jesus' sake, here in the midst of Lent we can rejoice in the grace and mercy of the open arms of our loving Father in heaven.

Each of today's Scripture readings is an invitation to repent. The Lord tells Israel that it is a matter of life or death. St. Paul promises that God will provide a way out of each temptation. And Jesus tells a parable about a fruitless tree being given a second chance. God's grace is always the impetus for turning our lives around; and we see it most clearly in our Lord's journey to the cross and tomb for us.
