Incredible how Ash Wednesday sneaks up on us every year. Once again, time for us to reorient ourselves and gain proper perspective on things. This season of Lent, let’s not only concentrate on repentance, almsgiving and what we give up, let’s also give some thought to all the blessings we receive.
Lent is here to shake me up, and I am very thankful.
To those of you who share in my faith and observe this holy season, I wish you a blessed one, full of enlightenment, peace, hope and love. To those of you who don’t, I still wish you a blessed one, full of enlightenment, peace, hope and love.
Until next Thursday’s post…si Dios quiere.
“For you are dust, and to dust you shall return.”
-Genesis 3:19
“Lent is the time for greater love.”
-Mother Teresa
“No act of virtue can be great if it is not followed by advantage for others. So, no matter how much time you spend fasting, no matter how much you sleep on a hard floor and eat ashes and sigh continually, if you do no good to others, you do nothing great.”
-J. Chrysostom
A blessed Lent to you and yours, amiga. Much love going your way.
