Lent is the time to demonstrate how our faith calls us to
compassion and mercy. We are called to
be full of mercy and forgiveness. Pope
Francis has declared the special year of mercy this year and we are encouraged
to practice it in all we do. Mother
Teresa once said, “Seeking the face of God in everything, everyone, all the
time, and his hand in every happening; this is what it means to be
contemplative in the heart of the world. Seeing and adoring the presence of
Jesus, especially in the lowly appearance of bread, and in the distressing
disguise of the poor” (In the Heart of the World). I believe that this is what we are called
to. Our God is always there for us and
is always willing to forgive. We need to
do the same.
