Sunday, April 3, 2022, is the fifth Sunday of Lent this year for Christians all over the world; one faith leader in Colorado suggests we think about the open chair across from Jesus as shown in one rendering of the Last Supper.
in Manitou Springs, Colorado, suggested that as we move closer to the passion of Jesus Christ and look ahead to the remainder of Lent, believers should visualize a painting of the Last Supper of Jesus while considering the themes of Lent — temptation, forgiveness and sacrificial love.
"In my own mind’s eye, I throw my legs over the bench," said Myers. "Around me, I hear the murmured conversation, and I try to think of something witty to say. The smell of spices fills my nostrils, and someone slides a serving dish my way." If a soundtrack accompanied Barna’s painting, said Myers, it might be the "haunting melody" of Johann Sebastian Bach’s"Saint Matthew’s Passion":"Mine, mine was the transgression, and thine the deadly pain." Faced with wrongdoing, Myers noted, our instinct is to deny.
"In our panic, we judge the disciples for a weakness we fear will be uncovered in our own hearts. 'My response to Jesus would have been so different,’ we tell ourselves."
