1) The Force.
The force is like the Holy Spirit, it ( He, the Holy Spirit) urges us to do good, and when we ignore the voice of the force or of the Holy Spirit, we turn to sin, or the Dark side.
2) The Jedi.
Like priests and women of the religious life, the Jedi knights give there lives to the Light side, ( to God) serving and protecting those around them. Putting on the habit of their order they offer up all for their fellow Jedi, or priests/ religious sisters.
3) The Dark side.
More commonly known as the Sith, the dark side is like us people overcome with sin, we have given up going to our fellow Jedi for forgiveness ( Confession) and we become selfish, wanting only for ourselves, whether it be power, or wealth.
4) Sacrificial love.
Do we all remember this fine fellow? Well he gives up his life for both of his padawans, Obi wan, and Anakin. And what does Obi wan grow up to do?
Giving his life for his padawan, Luke. Like priests these Jedi give their lives for those they love. And both of these, priests and Jedi, mirror Christ's sacrificial love for us on the Cross.
5) Darth Vader.
Although we try and deny it, we are Darth Vader. We have all fallen away from the light at one time, but in the end we see how wrong we really were, and we try to make up for it, even though we must repent, in the process. Physically dying for Darth Vader, but for us, we must die to ourselves.
Whistle while you work,
Emma
