The Journey Through Lent
The Journey through Lent is not meant to be one of suffering and hardship; it is meant to be one of growth.
Very often we need to go through difficulties in order to grow closer to Jesus and begin to understand the
mind of God.
This is in fact the journey that Jesus made as he fasted for forty days and forty nights in the wilderness. It was that he might empty himself of
everything so that He could do his Father's will perfectly in the three years of His Ministry.
This year, take time every day to thank God for the Graces and the Blessings that he has given to you as well as for
the difficulties that everyday life may bring you. Offer it all back to God. Only He can make the imperfect perfect and bring to
completion our growth towards Him.
