The purpose of Lent is not to force on us a few formal obligations, but to ‘soften’ our heart so that it may open itself to the realities of the spirit, to experience the hidden ‘thirst and hunger’ for communion with God.

"What are you giving up for Lent?"
“What are you giving up for Lent?” Our minds begin to whirl: Chocolate? Coffee? Social media?
Forty days later, some feel disappointed in their efforts, some feel surprised by their success, but perhaps precious few feel spiritually renewed.
We ache deep within to meaningfully honor Christ’s resurrection. Yet, in practice, this focal point in the liturgical calendar is often a celebration of public holiday more than it is of humanity’s hope.
In 40 Days of Decrease, Alicia Britt Chole offer forty different fasts in the hope that collectively they will prepare us to be duly awed by Christ’s resurrection by being duly available to daily crucifixion.
As we experience this sacred season and the holiness of loss and less in Jesus’ journey cross-ward, may our hearts open vulnerably to a greater commitment to love and be loved by the Savior.
Deserts unclutter the soul...
