**A very strong chastisement is just over the hill except many are not concerned with it.**
So very true.
Lord, have mercy;
Christ, have mercy;
Lord, have mercy!

Saturday, Third Week of Lent |
"O God, be merciful to me a sinner!" (Luke 18:13)
Suppose one has forgiven an injury and experienced reconciliation with the injurer--a process of two distinct stages. In such situations, it is not helpful to repeatedly bring our remembrance of the injury into the relationship. Discretion and a willingness to let the past be the past are called for, for the sake of the relationship--call this a type of "forgetting" if you will.

Lenten Fact Since Lent is a penitential season of preparation for Easter, the Stations of the Cross, which follow the path of Christ from Pontius Pilate's praetorium to Christ's tomb have been a popular devotion in parishes. In the 16th century, this pathway was officially entitled the "Via Dolorosa" (Sorrowful Way) or simply Way of the Cross or Stations of the Cross. |
Saturday, Fourth Week of Lent |
Lord, my God, in you I take refuge! (Psalm 7:2)
Lenten Fact Tradition holds that our Blessed Mother visited daily the scenes of our Lord's passion. |
Sunday, Fifth Week of Lent |
Then a voice came from the sky: "I have glorified it, and will glorify it again." (John 12:28)
Lenten Fact Passiontide is the last two weeks of Lent, when the readings and prayers of the liturgy focus on the Passion of Our Lord. The word 'passion', in the Christian sense, does not mean an intense emotion; it refers to the historical events of Jesus' suffering and death. Although for several centuries the Fifth Sunday of Lent was known as Passion Sunday, after the Second Vatican Council this name was restored to the Sunday at beginning of Holy Week , formerly called Palm Sunday. As a penitential season of the Church, Passiontide is evidently even more ancient than Lent. |
Monday, Fifth Week of Lent |
"Nor do I condemn you. You may go." (John 8:11)
Lenten Fact. In 1342, the Franciscans were appointed as guardians of the shrines of the Holy Land. The faithful received indulgences for praying at the following stations: At Pilate's house, where Christ met His mother, where He spoke to the women, where He met Simon of Cyrene, where the soldiers stripped Him of His garments, where He was nailed to the cross, and at His tomb. |
