A project of the Spirituality Committee of the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales
We offer the Sunday Responsorial Psalm as a focus for prayer and reflection
during the week ahead for yourself or to share with others.
You could note your own thoughts as a possible personal journal.
As we continue our Lenten journey it would be good to stop and think what does this season mean to us and how we use it as a time of grace.
Pope Leo, in his Lenten message this year writes;
Every path towards conversion begins by allowing the word of God to touch our hearts and welcoming it with a docile spirit. There is a relationship between the word, our acceptance of it and the transformation it brings about. For this reason, the Lenten journey is a welcome opportunity to heed the voice of the Lord and renew our commitment to following Christ, accompanying him on the road to Jerusalem, where the mystery of his passion, death and resurrection will be fulfilled.
