Lent – the journey

Monday 23 February 2009

Lent is about a personal journey, but not a private one; Lent is about the choices each one of us makes, but not selfishly…

…We will be wise to  allow our own Lenten choices to be judged by this criterion: will this way open me to that love poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, that alone enables us to live as one body of Christ…

…Love for all demands that this Lent is not private, but public, not selfish but self-giving.

from Living Lent within the Body of Christ by Archbishop Patrick Kelly in this week’s Catholic Herald.
