Lent is …… |
|
·
A
time to struggle with our selfishness ·
A
time to struggle with our lack-lustre performance on many fronts, a time to
improve ·
A
time to struggle with insensitivity in our dealings with family, with
co-workers, with friends ·
A
time to struggle with attitudes that are negative ·
A
time to struggle against our compulsions – to eat too much, to smoke, to waste
time, to talk too much, to talk too little ·
A
time to struggle with things that knock us off the path of friendship with God ·
A
time to struggle to lift our life-act onto a new level ·
A
time for new agendas and good resolutions Jesus
struggled. An inner struggle, inner
turmoil, inner distress. The kind
of struggle that drives people mad. Or the kind of struggle that makes saints.
(An Tobar Volume 2, Issue 3)
