November 22.  Jesus.   Margaret once challenged the Sacred Heart Sodality members about the wording on their T-shirts. “Yes, we all do see Jesus as meek, mild and humble but I ask myself is that your favourite image of him? There are different images and sometimes I can relate better to the one where he overturns the tables of the money-changers and chases those selling sacrificial animals away. I want the Jesus I hope to meet one day to be a powerful kingly figure.”   They had to agree that everyone has their own favourite image of Jesus. 

Reflect, share, act. Scripture:  Jesus entered the temple and began to drive out those who sold, saying to them, “it is written, ‘my house shall be a house of prayer,’ but you have it a den of robbers. Luke 19:45-48. Pope  Francis:  It is a profound spiritual experience to contemplate our loved ones with the eyes of God and to see Christ in them.  Our loved ones merit our complete attention. Jesus is our model in this, for whenever people approached to speak with him, he would meet their gaze, directly and lovingly. AL323. Eco-tip and prayer:  Creator God in this month of commemoration of loss and death comfort us in our pain and strengthen us in our understanding that you never abandon us and care for each of your creatures day by day.
