WIADFL - #2

WIADFL means...what I am doing for Lent. (Oh - stop groaning!)

I just ordered Ralph Martin's "Fulfillment of All Desire" and Laura and I are going to have our own online "book club" to discuss it. You are welcome to join us.

"What really holds us back from a wholehearted response to the call of Jesus, of Vatican II, of the repeated urgings of the Spirit, is not really the external circumstances of our lives, but the interior sluggishness of our hearts. We need to be clear that there will never be a better time or a better set of circumstances than now to respond wholeheartedly to the call to holiness. Who knows how much longer we'll be alive on this earth? We don't know how long we'll live or what the future holds. Now is the acceptable time."
