Jesus Calls On Us to Follow Him . . . this Lenten Season and Always

Jesus Calls On Us to Follow Him . . . this Lenten Season and Always Follow Me! The Homily begins by re-examining, briefly, the significance of the ashes (from Ash Wednesday) in our lives. The Homily goes on and discusses the Levi . . . St. Matthew. During the Homily, the audio makes reference to the painting that you see on this post. We have used it before. However, the painting reveals something about the Lord’ calling of St. Matthew. Notice the Lord points to the Levi; the Levi is illuminated by the light of Jesus. Jesus says . . . follow me! St. Matthew became a great Apostle. He left everything behind . . . to follow Jesus. In the audio, we are placed into the story. Jesus enters our lives. The Levi . . . as far as we know, did not seek Jesus. Jesus found the Levi . . . and says follow me! Jesus seeks us as well. Listen to how this story relates to all of us! Listen to How Jesus Calls On Us to Follow Him!
