> *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! Reflect: How is
> fasting tied to repentance? What is a contemporary version of "putting on
> sackcloth and ashes"? *
