Tuesday 2nd Week of Lent

 Religion is not a burden. Mt. 23:1-12



The Pharisees were the religious guides and had lost their way. 

They put burdens on other people’s shoulders. 

Telling them what they should do and not do. 

What one could eat and not eat. 

What was clean and unclean. 


All these things were burdens they put on other people’s shoulders that they themselves could not practice. 


The practice of religion is not meant to be a burden of things we must carry or a list of things we must do. 


Rather merely humble oneself before the Lord

And God will do the rest.
