Lent readies our heart and soul for Easter. Be careful to not be too busy with all the available resources, leave room for quiet prayer and reflection to focus and prepare for the great miracle of the Easter Resurrection. Jesus died for all of us, He has risen from the dead, and He is with us always, until the end of the age. This reality fills my heart with joy, and peace, and love.
Today, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent. Will you mark the day by attending Mass, receiving ashes on your forehead, fasting, and setting in place a plan for experiencing a holy and spiritual Lenten season? Will you spend additional time in prayer, in scripture or attending Stations of the Cross? These practices help us be still and listen to what God wants to tell us. We hear the voice of love itself. What are you waiting for?
I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Matthew 28:20
