We are told in 2 Corinthians 5:17, ‘Anyone united to Christ is a new creation. The old order has passed away. Behold, all has become new.’ But what does this mean in real and practical terms? The answer is complete transformation in the way in which we live our lives or in other words to become living flames of God’s love in the world by bringing, ‘Love where there was only hate, forgiveness where there was only thirst for revenge, truth where there was only lies, compassion where there was only indifference, mercy where there was only hard-heartedness and justice where there was only unfairness.’ (pages 58-59) As we follow Our Lord through the streets of Jerusalem to his cross, we would do well to remember that to accept his invitation to discipleship is nothing less than a call to action.
