March 23 | Third Sunday in Lent

These forty days called Lent (not counting Sundays) are like no other. The warnings are plentiful and blunt on the third Sunday in Lent. Cut it out or get cut down! The warnings are accompanied by God’s invitation to attentiveness: “Incline your ear, and come to me; listen, so that you may live.” There is good news for all of us. Thanks be to God!
