Day 6 of Lent

Since beginning my Lenten blog I have not given an update as to how I am living out my spiritual map, traveling over the 7 mountains I listed on Ash Wednesday.

Though I cannot take any credit for it, by God's grace, I am doing well. Over the past six days I have daily: made the stations of the cross, prayed the five Sorrowful mysteries, read the Gospel account - in small doses - of the Passion, and have also done my best to make a good examination of conscience.

Since listing the 7 spiritual mountains, I have been also been praying over the seven sorrows that pierced Our Lady's Immaculate Heart and have daily reflected upon the seven last words of Christ.

Of course my reflections and prayers are brief, nevertheless they are slowly helping me recognize how much Jesus and His Mother Mary love me and how I am called to live a life of fidelity, faith and charity.

God bless!
