By contemplating the harshness of the cross and Jesus’ suffering, we recognize the glory of Easter Sunday.
At its simplest, Lent is a season where you commit to a deeper holiness and more vibrant discipleship.
Lent is not just a time for squaring conscious accounts: but for realizing what we had perhaps not seen before. The light of Lent is given us to help us with this realization.
Give something, however small, to the one in need. For it is not small to one who has nothing. Neither is it small to God, if we have given what we could.
Lent is a call to renew a commitment grown dull, perhaps, by a life more marked by routine than by reflection.
For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.—Matthew 7:2 (NIV)

Lent is the autumn of the spiritual life during which we gather fruit to keep us going for the rest of the year.
I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.—John 10:10 (NIV)
