Solemnity of Christ, King of the Universe

Christ was really an "un-king", because he acted very *not* like a king. He loved the poor, the outcasts.  His vision of success was not of worldliness, but rather of the Kingdom of God, which is not a place, but a state of being.  You must love the downtrodden.  If you want to be in the kingdom of God you must work for it, not just pray for it.
