Worship the Lord Your God and Him Alone

Introduction

Ash Wednesday began our 40 days of preparation, before celebrating the Passion, death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Foundation of our Faith. My non-Catholic friends joke with me at lent; what are you going to give up chocolate? It sounds when we talk about lent in this context. I tell my friends Lenten preparation goes much deeper than temporarily giving up superficial things. Our Lenten prayer, fasting and almsgiving, is motivated and driven by our love and worship of God and God alone.

Our Lenten prayer, fasting and almsgiving, flows from our baptism, our faith in God’s word and worship of the Lord our God.

And in very instance Jesus responds by it is written, it is written, “you shall worship the Lord your God, and he alone you shall worship.”

Scripture says, “God created mankind in his image, in the image of God he created them male and female.” And God said it is very good. But in this generation, being born male or a female is declared not so good anymore. It is also written “you shall not murder”. But in this generation abortion is on demand, and infanticide celebrated, delivering the baby keeping her comfortable, while the doctor and the mother have a conversation! So, what do we believe in our heart and confess with our mouth, where do we get the courage and strength to stand against the evils and spiritual warfare this generation, our own temptations and vices.?
