March 1, 2015 – From Sr. Barbara Wincik

The gospel for the second week of Lent calls us to dwell on our own transformation. The image of God dwells in all of us. How do we nourish that image? How can we be that positive hope for others in a world that struggles with violence and persecution? Or do we need to find hope in the midst of the struggles we meet each day? There are no easy answers but the answers lie in the deepest part of ourselves. Perhaps we can take a lesson from the winter snow that cradles beneath it life. It is in the quiet waiting and listening that our truths unfold. Keep watch for the opportunities to deepen and grow in faith in God who loves us and desires to be close to us.
