Fourth in Ordinary Time : First of Lent; Valentine s Day; World Marriage Day Monday: Presidents Day Wednesday: The Seven Holy Founders of the Servite Order Friday: Abstinence TODAY S READINGS First Reading The Israelites show their faith by offering the Lord first fruits of the products of their new land (Deuteronomy 26:4-10). Psalm Be with me, Lord, when I am in trouble (Psalm 91). Second Reading All who express faith in the risen Christ and confess that he is Lord will be saved (Romans 10:8-13). Gospel Jesus was led into the desert by the Spirit and was tempted (Luke 4:1-13). TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Today Lent begins. Ash Wednesday initiates the forty days of the Lenten fast, but since s are not tallied in the days of fasting, today is the solemn opening of the forty days of Lent. The Church has work to do today, principally the calling forward of those chosen (the proper word is elected) for the Easter sacraments. Some of those who have been catechumens may now make a transition to a new way of life as the elect. For them, this Lent will be a time of purification and enlightenment. For us who accompany them, it is a time of helping them discern God s call and prepare for new life. This year, while the readings from the third year of the Lectionary cycle are usually read, they are set aside on certain s for the benefit of the elect. We turn then to the readings from Year A, and we give those who journey to the font of baptism three extraordinary companions. In the Gospels for those days, we meet the woman of Samaria and the man born blind, and we come to the tomb of Lazarus three days after his death. Many bishops celebrate the Rite of Election on or near today, affirming God s choice for these new faithful, and also offering them the solidarity of many companions. In 2013, over 38,000 adults entered the baptismal waters in the United States, a remarkable testimony to the vigor of our tradition of receiving and nurturing adult faith. JESUS AND THE DEVIL The devil tempted Jesus by quoting scripture, as today s Gospel reminds us. Try a self-serving miracle. Try selling out. Try dazzling the audience; people are gullible, after all. Try all these easy ways. The tempter tries to urge Jesus onto the slippery slope, attempts the old soft-soap, the snake-oil solutions that are always readily at hand. The devil knows better, but is powerless to do better, much less be better. The devil is evil personified, who senses in Jesus the stronger, truly attractive presence of holiness. Evil is exposed and engaged, we are reminded in this s Gospel. Evil knows the jig is up. The undoing of lies begins with Jesus, who takes up the work of soul-healing and world-healing. This Lent, the Church invites us to enter into this renewing, recreative work and be made whole again.. READINGS FOR THE WEEK Monday: Lv 19:1-2, 11-18; Ps 19:8-10, 15; Mt 25:31-46 Tuesday: Is 55:10-11; Ps 34:4-7, 16-19; Mt 6:7-15 Wednesday: Jon 3:1-10; Ps 51:3-4, 12-13, 18-19; Lk 11:29-32 Thursday: Est C:12, 14-16, 23-25; Ps 138:1-3, 7c-8; Mt 7:7-12 Friday: Ez 18:21-28; Ps 130:1-8; Mt 5:20-26 Saturday: Dt 26:16-19; Ps 119:1-2, 4-5, 7-8; Mt 5:43-48 : Gn 15:5-12, 17-18; Ps 27:1, 7-9, 13-14; Phil 3:17 4:1 [3:20 4:1]; Lk 9:28b-36 MAKE A WISH When you love someone all your saved-up wishes start coming out.

(You must be a member of the immediate family.) Jubilee Year of Mercy First of Lent On Ash Wednesday Pope Francis commissioned "Missionaries of Mercy," priest-confessors sent forth worldwide as "living signs of the Father's readiness to welcome those in search of [God's] pardon." In a way, though, Pope Francis challenges all of us to become "missionaries of mercy" (Misericordiae Vultus, 18) by living Lent in this Jubilee Year of Mercy "more intensely as a privileged moment to celebrate and experience God's mercy" (MV, 17). Francis bids us make the prophet Micah's words our own: "God... who does not persist in anger forever, but delights rather in clemency. You will cast into the depths of the sea all our sins" (Micah 7:18, 19). Having experienced God's mercy ourselves in the unconditional forgiveness of our sins, how eager we should be to invite others to know the peace of God's boundless mercy; perhaps even to experience, through our reaching out in gentle kindness and compassionate care, something of God's unconditional love for them. First of Lent I always thought today s Gospel shows how Jesus was tempted to be a Messiah in a way that matched human expectations those of Jews waiting for a messiah instead of doing what his Father wanted. But I also wonder if these temptations are what we expect of God. Do we expect God to provide for our needs by turning stones into money? God does help us with our troubles, but usually by giving us the strength to get through them with our God-given abilities. This might mean finding a better job that uses more of our talents. It might be forgiving us, if we are the cause of our own troubles, and giving us the courage to start over. Or do we expect God to bring peace to the world by instantly removing all nuclear weapons or capturing all terrorists? When we pray for peace, we could pray that God show us what we can do to bring that peace. We could be generous in giving to the poor, especially where poverty is the cause of war. Maybe we expect God to be a superhero for us, strengthening our faith with spectacular miracles. Jesus would tell us the same thing he told the devil: Don t put the Lord your God to the test (see Luke 4:12). Instead, as we take time to pray over the scriptures, read spiritual books, and share our faith with others, we will find our faith growing and know that the Lord has been with us all along the way.
