The teaching of today may begin by the parable of the gospel where we see clearly the two possible attitudes of the Christians of today. To do the will of the Father does not mean performing religious practices, but to practice the commandment of love towards our fellow brothers and sisters. This is probably a parable told by Jesus just after his triumphant entry into Jerusalem. The crowd from all over the world, including many Jews had just acclaimed Jesus as King, the Son of David and sung Hosanna to him. However, just a few days later, the same people with a few exceptions, would cry for his crucifixion. So, in telling this parable, Jesus certainly knew that these same people would betray him in the days followed. They resemble the son who said, ‘’I go, sir,’’ but did not go. They perhaps, had the intention to do the will of the Father, but out of fear they betrayed their Lord and Savior. The second son who said, ‘’I will not,’’ but then repented and went to do the will of the father resembles those who repented of their wrongdoings like the tax collectors and sinners and converted to become Jesus’ disciples during his earthly life and the time thereafter. Something we should be aware of is that in the Church, in our Christian communities, in the world there will always be two types of sons: some say ‘’yes!’’ in baptism, but then in concrete life they change this ‘’yes!’’ into many ‘’no’s!’’ On the other hand there are many people who have never said ‘’yes!’’ explicitly to God, but in their everyday life they love their brother, help and suffer for them, perform many charitable deeds. Let us pray to always be able to follow the steps of our Lord Jesus who accepts the will of the Father (by demonstrating his ‘YES’) until he dies on the cross. What he needs of us, is to stay firm in our faith.
