LENT IS A DESERT EXPERIENCE: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION: 1ST SUNDAY OF LENT, CYCLE B, 2024

ByOnuh

Lent is a desert experience of a long retreat of silence, reflection, meditation, and prayer. We all need this desert experience. Every Lenten season is a journey of grace into the desert. There are fewer distractions. It is quieter and clearer in the desert.

LENT: THE LONGEST SPIRITUAL RETREAT : CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 1ST SUNDAY OF LENT, CYCLE C, 2022

ByOnuh

Indeed, Lent is the longest spiritual retreat every Christian can or should embark on to prepare and enter joyfully into the Easter joy of the Resurrected Lord. Lenten season is a moment of grace and mercy. We are inviting three actions of forgiveness, conversion and reconciliation with God, others and ourselves, with the attitudes of praying, fasting and almsgiving.
