Jesus challenges the people of some local towns to see the wonders being done within them and to think and live differently because of that.

But that is much easier said than done, no?

Today, i ask the question - what keeps us from repentance?  What keeps us from turning around and living our lives differently?

I also return to yesterday's Gospel where Jesus asks us to love God above all other persons and things and ask - what keeps us from doing that?
