The biggest mistake we could ever make would be to not allow Jesus to take away our sins for which He willingly died.

Who would die to save a worthless creature? God!

Jesus’ death was not a bad thing that we should have tried to prevent; it was His will to die to save us and a tremendous act of love.

Even Jesus was afraid of His Passion, so don’t feel like you’ve sinned if you’re frightened of doing something difficult. Just turn to God for strength.

Sins is deadly, as it destroys our union with God, but Jesus loved us enough to pay the price for our sins and restore us to Him.

Here is a talk I gave at St. Denis Parish as part of our Lenten discussion series. I did not have anyone on hand to tend to the camera and move it with the action of the talk, so I apologize that every once in a while I end up walking out of the picture. I hope you appreciate this discussion.
