What He Did For Love: A Companion for the Forty Days of Lent
By Francis X. Gaeta
LENT IS A TIME OF FASTING - We fast from:
discontent • anger • bitterness • self-concern • despair
guilt • suspicion • laziness
LENT IS A TIME OF FEASTING - We feast on:
gratitude • forgiveness • compassion • commitment
hope • truth • patience • the mercy of God
"What this book is meant to do is to bring us to the word of God each day for fifteen minutes. In that period of time we will be allowing the Lord to gently touch our hearts and teach us how to pray. We will be in the process of conversion which is what Lent is all about. We will be preparing to renew our life with the Lord at the beautiful moment of the renewal of the Baptismal Promises at Easter Mass." -- From the Author's Introduction
"This is not Fr. Frank 'preaching at us,' but sharing our common human weaknesses and frailties, made newly recognizable as opportunities to open one's heart to the grace and power of God's love.... Perhaps the single most effective gift of this small book is its everydayness, which teaches a genuine Christ-centered spirituality." -- From the Foreword by Thelma Hall, r.c. Author of Too Deep for Words
“The single most effective gift of this small book is its genuine Christ-centered spirituality.”
—Thelma Hall, r.c.
