Between the burning bush and the fig tree, this week’s readings demonstrate that God’s gardening is a bit different than ours. As you make your way through Lent, working to sacrifice and pray, to grow virtue and meditate on Christ’s suffering, now is God at work doing something with your life that you would find hard to see? In what ways could your life be a burning bush, or a tree struggling to p…roduce fruit? Can you marvel at the miracle-in-progress God is working in you, even while you do not understand or appreciate it all? Thank God for the tending He is doing in your life, and give Him permission to keep gardening.
Prayer of the Faithful: For appreciation for the ongoing work God is doing with our souls, we pray to the Lord.
