Lenten Reflections
I was blessed yesterday to have met with my spiritual director. The fruit of that meeting was a very clear understanding of how God has called me to change during this holy season of Lent...and after.
I'll spare the details because they are personal, but I do want you all to know the value of continually seeking God's voice in your life. It is absolutely essential to seek His Wisdom through prayer and spiritual direction. Without those two things, the blessings of Lent have potential to get lost in the "I gave up..." and "I'm doing...extra" shuffle.
Instead of focusing on the legalism of sacrifice (which is not unimportant), let us all take time to reflect on the many and various ways that God may have worked through those sacrifices.
I pray that your Holy Week is a time of spiritual fruit.
God bless!
