Lent might be challenging you as God works through your life to bring about deeper healing. You may have fallen away from some of your resolutions and sacrifices, but we want to invite you to lean back into God's love and mercy for you.
Be encouraged by this week's video from Fr. Mark Toups.
- As we explored this week, it’s not a matter of whether we have questions for and about God, but instead where we go with the questions (or, rather, to whom we go). What questions about Jesus, his Passion, his Church, or your faith have arisen in your heart this week? How is God inviting you to bring those questions back to him in prayer?
- Which individual(s) from this week’s readings and reflections stood out to you the most: the ten lepers, the blind beggar, the Apostles, the Pharisees, Zacchaeus, Judas, or someone else? Why? How does picturing Jesus’ journey from their perspective teach you something more about God, his love, his mercy, and/or your relationship with him?
- VIDEO REFLECTION: Throughout Lent, in what ways have you sensed Jesus inviting you to surrender the boundaries and “boxes” in your heart that you have used to keep him out?
- Now take a moment to reflect on the past week, going over the meditations that bore the most fruit in your prayer, the things you wrote, and your reflections on this week’s video. How has your prayer changed this week?
May this time of prayer and self-discovery lead us to a profound encounter with the love and grace of our Lord.
In His love and grace,
Sr. Lupita FdCC
