Devotion - Thusday, March 25

Spring break is a horrible interruption to our Lenten journey. Regardless of how well we had been maintaining our discipline, these nine days throw everything out of whack. The days of Lent are about to reach their end. It is time for us to enter into the experiences of Holy Week.

Passion Sunday (this Sunday) is the day on which we begin our rapid march through Jesus’ welcome into Jerusalem; his disgust with what he sees there, the rejection and finally the betrayal. All of this begins in a few short days.

If your Lenten journey has been interrupted, return to the path. Remember the devotion which moved you to alter your routine and adjust your actions. Reclaim as much as you can of the mood and attitude of your Ash Wednesday confession.

The journey of Lent prepares us for the events of Holy Week. Prepare yourself for what will be experienced in the week to come.
