Lent II

Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world

 - From Matthew 25

The Scorecard.

1. Feed the hungry
2. Give drink to the thirsty
3. Welcome the stranger
4. Clothe the naked
5. Care for the sick
6. Visit the imprisoned

There's more:

Do all of the above for the weakest, poorest, ugliest, least popular, shortest, sickest, skinniest, fattest, meanest, dumbest, and most obnoxious among you. 

Don't just focus on Number 3, as a bludgeon to use against your political enemies. Don't just favor #3, to the exclusion of the other six, without actually practicing it yourself. Don't just focus on #3, because it will get you more votes (more power) than the other six. 

Do all seven!

And do all seven for the people you don't like, don't align with, don't agree with, don't like being in the presence of!!

And if you fancy yourself a practitioner, even an expert, of one of the seven, don't brag about it! Don't announce it! Don't draw attention to yourself because of it!

Lent is no time for politics.
