Although today is the Feast of St. Therese, the Little Flower, there is nothing flowery about the Gospel we have for this feast day. At this stage of Luke’s account of Jesus journey to Jerusalem, Luke shows Jesus to be very frustrated and expecting much more of the crowds following him than they appear to be ready to offer. Perhaps the richest and deepest prayer for us at this time in Luke’s Gospel comes when we spend time with Jesus in his frustration and disappointment and wait with him for the Father to indicate what steps he should take next.
