We Are Still in Lent - New Life Begins Each Day



The sentence ,We Are Still in Lent, may be taken two ways.  In time and in what we all desire to be and to do in Lent, Be still and know the Lord.   The Real ity Check however  is that we get busy  in our daily round and revert back to the daily grind of just getting things done. There is Hope,though,  as we ride off into the sunset. God is ever rich in Mercy and in Kindness.  God knows of what we are made and gives us His love and Grace to accomplish the journey successfully.  We walk to God by our human acts and the secret of each of our choices in all of this, is to make our free choices  help us on our journey.  But we are never alone.    When we fall, and we will fall  as sure as day follows the night, we have a wonderful support system to help us on the way..We have God, His Grace and the support of our human community.   So let us rise and began again because up to now we have done nothing. Words of St. Francis of Assisi.
