How can it already be Holy Week? Lent seems to have flown by…and I have not been spectacularly successful in doing all that I intended to do during Lent. Today’s post, written for the devotional, is about that, sort of. Now, however, I have a toddler to put to bed.
Today’s meditiation, at thinking coram deo, is an excerpt from the manuscript of the Lenten devotional I am preparing for publication. Feedback is most welcome!
Sunday, I rest: I go to Mass and hear the words of the priest. Today, I return to my daily reflections, at thinking coram deo, and I offer it with my prayers, in thanksgiving, for everyone who reads it. May God richly bless us this Lent, as we seek him with contrite hearts.
A funny thing happened after the 97th time (or something like that) I read Deuteronomy 30. It is the first reading for Mass today. The Mass readings are at Universalis, and my reflections are 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.
