Friends, * in today's Gospel Jesus tells the crowds who seek a sign that
they will only receive the sign of Jonah: "Just as Jonah became a sign to
the Ninevites, so will the Son of Man be to this generation."*

*Jonah is called by God to preach to Nineveh, which is described as an
enormously large city.* It takes, they say, three days to walk through it.
I can't help but think of* Nineveh as one of our large, modern cities, a
center of all sorts of worldly activity and preoccupation.*

*What would its conversion look like? A turning back to God as the only
enduring good.* *After hearing the word of Jonah, the Ninevites proclaim a
fast, and all of them, great and small, put on sackcloth. *What is the
purpose of these ascetic practices? *To wean people away from **an
attachment to worldly pleasures.*

*Go beyond **the mind that you have*. *Repent. *Live as though nothing in
this world finally matters. And you will be living in the kingdom of God!
