Lent is the season of renewal. Are you prepared?
There is no one “right” way to journey through Lent. Each person is different, each year is different, and each year is different for each person. What matters more than
WHAT
you choose to do to enhance your spiritual growth is that you
DO. Choose an action that sets these days apart from the rest of the year. Add a ritual to your meal or bedtime routine. Fast from an unhealthy behavior and feast on kindness. Practice alms-giving. Enhance your prayer life. Walk the Lenten journey with Mary.
Mary is a beautiful model of spiritual growth. From her presence as a compassionate friend to pregnant Elizabeth, to her birthing the Son of God, to her companionship for those grieving Jesus’s death on the cross while bearing her own deep sorrow, Mary displayed a wisdom beyond her years, and we can learn much from her.
