Lent invites each of us to enter on the path of liberation from whatever slavery torments us. Our King, the Man-God, is before us: he gives us new heart, so that we may experience our anxiety and our suffering in a form that leads to salvation, through his love and love of our brothers. The Most Holy Virgin precedes us on this difficult path and encourages us to quicken our steps, pointing out to us the radiant goal of Easter. ~ Pope John Paul II Direct our hearts to better things, O Lord; heal our sin and ignorance. ~Responsory, Mass for Ash Wednesday
