Last week, during the first full week of Lent, the Bible readings at daily Mass focused on change. We can change, by God's Grace. This week, the readings focus on sin. Now that I am reminded that I CAN change, WHAT should I change? Last week's Bible readings focused on God's kind mercy; this week we focus on our own weakness and the evil we sometimes choose. (Lord, show me my sins and what remains unconverted in my heart. Then hold me anew in Your strong embrace that I may have the courage to cast away my sins and live for You alone.)
