Fr. Dick’s Spiritual Reflection–2/25/2026
THE GREAT AWAKENING
As we begin our Lenten season, I pulled out something that I use when giving retreats and I thought it would be a good tool for me to use during this special time of preparation for Easter.
It is just a list of challenges:
- We’re not perfect and it’s okay.
- Know the difference between needing and wanting.
- Stop blaming other people for what they did or didn’t do.
- Happiness is not over the next horizon.
- Be convinced that it is in giving that we receive.
- Negative thoughts take the life out of you.
- Life is not fair. God is good and bad things happen to good people.
- We are Easter people and alleluia is our song.
May these thoughts help you through your Lenten Awakening…
