REFLECT
1. How was my Lenten journey been so far?
2. If you have been Catholic for most of your life, does Lent tend to feel tedious and boring?
3. What might you do differently during Lent next year? (It’s not too late to make some changes now, in your spiritual preparation towards the Celebration of Easter)

PRAY
O my God, I know well that so negligent a life as mine cannot please You.
I know that by my lukewarmness I have closed the door
to the graces which You desire to bestow on me.
O my God, do not reject me, as I deserve,
but continue to be merciful toward me,
and I will make great efforts to amend and to
arise from this miserable state.
In the future, I will be more careful to overcome
my passions and to follow Your inspirations;
and never through slothfulness will I omit my duties,
but will strive to fulfill them with greater diligence and fidelity.
Amen.
