The values at risk are clearly stated: the law of God has become a mere contract, there is no longer hope for its fulfilment.
Raguel, Edna and Sarah are full of fear and despair. The entire project of creation seems to be overturned, everything seems to be upside down.
And yet, another Christological symbol makes its apparition: a sheep is killed for the guests.
It has always been difficult to me to accept the fact that the sacrifice of Christ is for each of us.
Thinking that you are on a Cross gives a plain explanation of the challenges everybody of us undergoes in our everyday life.
But it does not work that way: nobody can carry the Cross that Jesus carries, the way He does.
We are not bearing our cross, we are in His Cross and that's what can save us.
Spending your life for someone else is difficult, but accepting someone else's life is even more difficult.
Lent is close. End of the homily.
