How is your journey through these 40 days of Lent? Sometimes it's easy to get side-tracked. We stumble. We forget the commitments we made at Ash Wednesday - commitments to spend more time in prayer or reading scripture. We fail. Once again, we fail.
I stumbled across the prayer. It seems fitting for these days prior to Holy Week.
Lord Jesus Christ, you are for me medicine when I am sick;
you are my strength when I need help;
you are life itself when I fear death;
you are the way when I long for heaven;
you are light when all is dark;
you are my food when I need nourishment.
- Ambrose of Milan (240-397)
Wherever you are in your spiritual journey, today is a new day. You can start fresh today. Praise God.
