Lent is a time of grace. It is a season when God calls us to return to our first love, to sanctify Christ as Lord in our hearts (1 Pet. 3.15). It is a journey of conversion, of opening ourselves to God’s mercy, and of allowing Him to rekindle in us the joy of His presence. As Archbishop Kallistos Ware reminds us, Lent is a time of joy-
creating sorrow—a sorrow that does not leave us in despair but leads us back to abundant life in God.
