Fr. Mike Leclerc, 1st Sunday of Lent

The struggle we all have is that we’re all afraid to be really honest about who we are. We try and hide parts of ourselves from God and from others. We think God is going to reject us, and we’re afraid others will judge us. We think it’s like high school, where if we’re actually honest and open we will be kicked out of the cool kids table, mocked on social media and become social outcasts.
