1st Week of Lent - Friday C
As we journey through this sacred season of Lent, the readings we encounter today invite us to reflect deeply on our lives and our readiness for the Kingdom of Heaven. The call to conversion embedded in the words of the prophet Ezekiel, the Psalmist, and our Lord Jesus in the Gospel remind us that life is, indeed, a continual preparation for the eternal life that awaits us—a life free from anger, impurity, dishonesty, and falsehood.
