A Vocation in Lent


I guess this morning got me thinking that if we are so interested in going forward in our lives and the direction we want to go, we truly have to be deeply rooted. Whatever our history, the journey we have taken, we should be thankful. In this most acceptable time, time of mercy and renewal. We gather the harvest of the good and learn to burn the excess (the useless baggage that we acquire and sometimes have a difficulty to let go). In prayer, meditation and other acts we carry out in this lenten season, we renew the important things that continue to give us life.
A light continues to burn brightly from that sacrifice of our Lord. It continues to remind us that given generously for those we love, losing oneself in the immense being of the Father, we regain our own self. The author of life, continues to infuse his life in us and sees in us, the treasured children the Lord calls his own. Yes Lord, we are yours and in you we have our being. Thank you for our lives. Please continue, we pray, to guide and strengthen us on our journey.
