A selection of Lenten Tweets posted to Twitter:
- “Preach the Gospel always. When necessary, even use words.” (St. Francis). High standard. What does my life say without words?
- “Teach us to care and not to care. Teach us to sit still.” (T.S. Eliot, “Ash Wednesday.” Suggested by A. Esolen, Magnificat)
- Finished reading Richard John Neuhaus’ short book, As I Lay Dying. Worth pondering our end, during Lent.
- The rhythm of the Church Year (Advent, Lent, etc.) is a gracious aid to spiritual growth.
- If the Church has nothing to say, then golf or NY Times are better uses of Sun a.m. On the other hand . . .
- May our Lenten resolves be as solid a stone Cathedral floor. Too often we are “carpet Christians.”
- The world is often written in minor keys. In eternity we shall enjoy the majors.
