It is Lent. We're in the midst of this time of self-examination and exploration of the depths of our spirits. It can get messy. It can get ugly. It is part of the purification of our 'selves' that needs to happen to let God come in and fill us.
I hope that this Lent we can learn to depend even more on God for all that we need. Too many times we seem to try to fend for ourselves and this is not how God created us. Yet, I'm guilty of it as much as anyone. Finding a way to lean on God more and more means we have to give up more and more. In this time of economic crisis, we seem to give up things only when we absolutely have to, and because people are out of money, out of housing, out of employment--giving up is starting to happen more frequently. But this giving up should actually lead us to greater happiness. I hope the lesson learned from this day and age is not lost in despair, but an invitation to hope again.
