A Lenten Invitation from Sr. Miriam James Heidland, SOLT Lent. Some people love it, some people dread it, but all of us know that we are supposed to somehow be transformed through it all. We often give up chocolate, alcohol, or meat. We remember that we are only pilgrims on this earth and that all things pass away. And while all these things are inherently good and important, I often wonder what is being engaged at the deeper level of our hearts. This Lent, why not try a different approach? Why not meet Christ, wherever you are, and accept his invitation to heal and love you? The Restore Lenten journal’s combination of daily meditations, questions for reflection, journaling space, prayers, and beautiful original art is specially designed to draw you into a deeper, richer experience of Lent. Through its meditations, you will not only to walk with Jesus to Calvary but also to go with him into the desert, to receive his healing mercy, to practice forgiveness, and to meet Jesus in the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Communion. The 4 Healing Steps on the Journey to Easter Prayer: Healing Our Relationship with God In part 1, you’ll focus on the idea of prayer as our primary way of connecting with God and healing your relationship with him. Everything in the spiritual life begins with prayer, so too does this journal. Fasting: Healing Our Relationship with Ourselves Part 2 leads you to reflect on fasting as an avenue for healing your relationships with yourself and your sin. These meditations help you explore the roots of your sin and desires so that you can come to terms with your need for Jesus’s healing mercy. Almsgiving: Healing Our Relationship with Others In part 3, you’ll focus on how almsgiving heals your relationships with others. These meditations challenge you to reflect on how you can be a better companion to members in your family and community. Sacrifice: Jesus Restores Us to Life Part 4—Holy Week—is a deep exploration of where your heart stands with God and how you can walk with him to Calvary, uniting your sacrifices with his. We rise with him on Easter Sunday, experiencing the fullness of all things.
