Blame Versus Claiming What's Yours

Homily from Palm Sunday.

It is not my fault, but it is my responsibility.

When there is something that we like, we are quick to claim it. When there is something we don't like, we are quick to claim it is not our fault. But our story must end with our becoming like the Father...and the Father bears the marker of adulthood: The Cross.
