"Just something interesting that came to mind yesterday at Mass. In the garden of eden, Adam & Eve had abundance, and yet they still fell for temptation. Jesus was in the wilderness with nothing, and he was hungry. Yet he was able to resist the temptation to turn stones into bread. Our Lenten sacrifices remind us that no matter how much we accumulate, it will never be enough. It is in letting go, and turning to God, that we realise how these things can slowly block God from our lives."
- Terence Kesavan on the Quadragesima 2011 Wall.
