Your light will rise in the darkness.

The Lord continues to tell his people how they must live if they want to enjoy his favor. They must do all that he has commanded them and put an end to tyranny and oppression and sin. It reminds us of the blessings and rewards that await us if we practice justice, kindness, and compassion toward others.

Your light will rise in the darkness.

In the gospel, the Word of God comes and meets everyone. It is light for all. For those who believe and live their lives in accordance with God's wishes, but also for those who do not live in accordance with His commandments. By accepting Jesus' call, Levi comes out of his darkness to enter the light. Lent is, therefore, the exercise in holiness by following Jesus as his disciple in words and actions. Follow me!
