Sarah’s Reviews > Meditations for Lent > Status Update

Not reading this every day but a couple times a week skipping ahead to the proper day. Always great meditations. Can’t believe Lent is almost over.

“Understand, Christian, how hard it is to go up to the Cross with Jesus and how great is our need for His grace.”

Each day in this book gives you just one or two small gems of knowledge and contemplation, yet they fill your soul with so many thoughts and graces.

“Suffering restores order. Punishment for sin is the rule. You come to order through suffering, just as you stray by sinning. ... But if the threats are to be accomplished, the promises will be as well. Go to your crucifix: look upon it and see all of the predictions accomplished, even the least of them. Say to yourself, everything will be fulfilled, and the happiness that has been promised to me will not fail.
