Friday after Ash Wednesday

I seem to be stuck, just a little bit, on Psalm 51. This is, I suppose, not a bad thing, given that it is Lent. My reflection on the psalm, and its connection with the today’s reading from Isaiah 58, is over at thinking coram deo.

For my sins, I will be blogging (daily if I can manage it) over at thinking coram Deo, where I restrict myself to reflection on the daily Mass readings. Today, it’s Psalm 51 [50], and the beginning of Lent.
