There is a thirst in your bones that nothing this side of Heaven can satiate.In this profound homily for the third Sunday of Lent, Father Jegar delves into the theme of spiritual thirst through the lens of the scrutiny rites, which prepare catechumens for baptism at the Easter Vigil. He reflects on the symbolic and deeply spiritual significance of the Samaritan woman at the well, as depicted in the Gospel of John.Father Jegar explores the encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman, highlighting the transformative power of acknowledging our deepest thirsts—those that material and earthly satisfaction cannot quench. He uses this narrative to illustrate the universal human experience of seeking fulfillment and the ultimate satisfaction that can only be found in Christ. The homily invites listeners to examine their own lives, to recognize the areas where they seek fulfillment in temporary solutions, and to turn instead towards the eternal promise offered by Jesus.This message is not just for those preparing for baptism but for all faithful, urging them to scrutinize their spiritual journeys and to deepen their relationship with God. Father Jegar encourages the congregation to embrace the Lenten season as a time to reflect on their spiritual needs and to seek the living water that Christ offers, which alone can quench the deepest thirst of the human soul.
