“𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒆𝒎𝒑𝒍𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝑱𝒆𝒓𝒖𝒔𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒎, 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈,“ 𝒊𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒏, ‘𝑴𝒚 𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒔𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒃𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝒂 𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒑𝒓𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒓,’ 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒊𝒕 𝒂 𝒅𝒆𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒓𝒐𝒃𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒔.”
𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒘 21:13

On this Holy Monday, we remember how Jesus Christ entered the temple not out of anger, but with love, forgiveness, and the intention to restore what was sacred. He made a whip out of cords, overturned the tables of the money changers, and drove them out of the holy space. His actions remind us that we must not remain silent in the face of wrongdoing.

This day calls us to reflect deeply on His life. It invites us to look inward and purify our hearts. Just like the temple, our hearts can be filled with distractions, and wrong intentions. But this day is a call to change-a call to courage. We must find it within ourselves to ask: What tables in my life need to be overturned? What must I let go of to make space for God?

In doing so, we allow God to reign in our hearts and teach us that change is necessary, but transformation becomes truly powerful when it begins from within.

As we begin this solemn journey through Holy Week, may we pause and reflect, find purpose and silence in our soul- searching, draw strength through cleansing our thoughts, renewing our faith, and allowing our hearts to become temples of peace, justice, and forgiveness, just as Jesus Christ has shown us.
