Dear God, As I fast, may Your presence be my sustenance. As I pray, continue to reveal Yourself to me. As I give to others, may I know You even more deeply.

In the readings today, we hear about how Jesus Christ is the ever-vigilant gardener. He desires us to bloom, that we will do what we were created to do, that we will bear the fruit that God intended.

Today is the Second Sunday of Lent. During the Gospel reading, as Peter, James and John witnessed Jesus’ transfiguration, they heard God say, “This is my chosen Son; listen to him.”

In the second reading, we will hear how Paul encouraged the Christians in Rome to have a genuine faith in Jesus in both heart and mind. As the season of Lent begins, how might you show others the sincerity of your faith?

Today, we hear “A good person out of the store of goodness in his heart produces good, but an evil person out of a store of evil produces evil; for from the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks.” (Lk 6:45)
