Today we are confronted with two stories of temptation: Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden
were tempted by the serpent to be like God. Jesus in the desert was tempted with immediate
gratification, power and wealth. We too are tempted in many ways, by many things. When we
give way to temptations they become the rocks and weeds in our lives that hinder our spiritual
growth. By resisting temptation our gain is faithfulness to God. We are freed, like Jesus, to be
persons led by the Spirit. What is the biggest temptation in my life at the moment?

I’m writing this on Ash Wednesday
morning — the morning after our “Mardi Gras”
celebration! It was a great party: fabulous food,
delightful drinks, marvelous music, exciting
environment and a crazy crowd! (Notice the
alliteration!). If you missed it, put it on your
calendar for next year: Tuesday, February 21,
2012.
If you cannot wait that long for a party, then plan to
attend ……

Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend as I will be at
the Religious Education Congress in Anaheim, California; in
fact, that night, some of us will be in the audience of “Jimmy
Kimmel, Live!”. (Recall that Jimmy grew up in Las Vegas and
at Christ the King. I am his sponsor for Confirmation and have
remained friends with him over all these years.) So, as I’m
celebrating St. Paddy’s Day in southern California, probably with
a Guinness(!), I’ll give a toast to all you back at CTK as you
celebrate this great holiday: REMEMBER: there are only
TWO types of people in the world — 1) those who are IRISH
and 2) those who wish they were (and are GREEN with
envy!). Of course, I’m in the first preferred group — THE
IRISH!
I hope that you took a ‘rock’ home with you this
weekend. As Lent happens in the springtime — a time when
many get rid of the rocks and weeds in their outdoor gardens, we
are asked to get rid of the ‘rocks and weeds’ in our lives: those
things that are obstacles to us on our spiritual journeys. Even in
the Gospel for the First Sunday of Lent, Jesus was tempted by
Satan to turn rocks/stones into bread. Put that ‘rock’ somewhere
in your home where it will be a constant reminder of what
changes you want to make during Lent. Lent is a time of change,
conversion, growth and renewal.
Have a great Lent. HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!

WATER FOR LIFE Needs Your Help. Your
Single gift or monthly pledge will continue to give
and bear fruit for many years to come. Like clean,
fresh water, your care will flow into the lives of so
many grateful children and their families, if we are
to build a brighter tomorrow by reversing the cycle
of poverty on this earth, every little step is important.
You CAN help stop hunger, heal diseases, and save
thousands of lives in Haiti— with the precious gift of
WATER! More important still, you will be helping
to share the message of “living water” with people
who are spiritually thirsty for life in Jesus Christ?
“And whoever in the name of a disciple gives to one
of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink,
truly I say to you he shall not lose his reward.”
