got 3 minutes?
welcome to your daily lenten retreat
Three minutes a day can give you 24 hours of peace.
Fr. Steven Bell shares his reflection on today’s retreat:
Is death the end of hope? In moments of death, despair and darkness, it may seem like hope has met its match. Yet Jesus’ loving challenge to Martha at the death of her brother Lazarus is also a loving challenge to us.
Do we place our trust in the dark moments? Or, can we believe beyond the darkness that our eyes see and our heart feels in Jesus who, with great power and love, brings eternal life, hope, and light. Our “Yes” to Jesus’ question is the key to finding hope in dark times. The challenge for us is to strengthen our belief that Jesus brings life to the darkness in our lives.
