Fr. Michael writes: Today’s Gospel talks of Christ as the light of the world. In Christ there is no trace of darkness. He is always in the light, and his light shows up the darkness in us. His truth shows up our lies. His integrity shows up our falseness. His generosity shows up our selfishness. His peace shows up our conflicts. His openness to others shows how closed we are. Therefore, we should not be surprised if we sometimes feel uncomfortable in his presence. We do not always follows his light, but prefer candles in the wind; flames in the night. When these lights extinguish, the darkness is greater than if they had never shone.4th Sunday of Lent
