Get Behind Me Satan!

A meditation by Fr. Eric Nicolai: Jesus says he must suffer, and Peter says God forbid…and he is rebuked with the strongest possible words: that he is satan. Meaning an obstacle to the salvific plans. This is about seeing our life too humanly, approaching challenges too passively. Do I experience the temptation of not embracing the cross that will make us grow in love? Opening and closing guitar composed by F. Händel, Lascia ch'io pianga. Played by Bert Alink. Painting of Saint Peter gazing at the keys, by Giovanni Francesco Barbieri (1591 – 1666) also know as Guercino, in the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, CA.
