Lent, 2024
(Ecc
3:1-7) All things have their season, and in their times all things pass
under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant, and
a time to pluck up that which is planted. A time to kill, and a time to
heal. A time to destroy, and a time to build. A time to weep, and a
time to laugh. A time to mourn, and a time to dance. A time to scatter
stones, and a time to gather. A time to embrace, and a time to be far
from embraces. A time to get, and a time to lose. A time to keep, and a
time to cast away. A time to rend, and a time to sew. A time to keep
silence, and a time to speak.
UPDATES: Non-subscribers can access items emailed during Lent at Tribulaton Times - Google Groups.
ST. JOHN HENRY NEWMAN:
Self-denial of some kind or other is involved, as is evident, in the
very notion of renewal and holy obedience. To change our hearts is to
learn to love things which we do not naturally love—to unlearn the love
of this world; but this involves, of course, a thwarting of our natural
wishes and tastes. To be righteous and obedient implies self-command;
but to possess power we must have gained it; nor can we gain it without
a vigorous struggle, a persevering warfare against ourselves. The very
notion of being religious implies self-denial, because by nature we do
not love religion.

LENTEN SABBATICAL
The TRIB
TIMES will not
be updated again this year
during the Lenten season, extending to the first week after
Easter. My computer time will be limited to 30
minutes
each morning and evening during Lent. I will read all emails I receive,
and will answer all that I can, time permitting. I may also
occasionally
email non-reformatted news articles to Trib Times subscribers that I
find
to be of particular interest. But barring a major event (admittedly not unlikely these days), the Trib
Times
web page itself will not be updated.
I
apologize to all who have recently subscribed but
will keep your email information for use after my return. God
willing,
the next issue of the Trib Times should be shortly after Divine Mercy
Sunday, April 7, 2024. Please keep me in your
prayers, and be
assured that
I will do the same.
