Wake Up
Arise and shine:
Your light is here,
and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
— Isaiah 60:1
Has Christ’s Holy Church hit the snooze button too often?
One week ago today was Ash Wednesday, and Lent began. For too many of us, a renewed commitment faded as fast as the smudged cross on our foreheads.
Still looking for a “holy habit” to try this Lenten season? Isaiah 60:1 has a great suggestion: Arise and shine.
Let’s get our hands away from the snooze button of our souls. It’s time for us as Christians to wake up.
What might it mean for you and me to arise and shine today?
