Fasting From Our Clutter

1st day
Catholic Update from St. Anthony Messenger Press continues it's annual Lent meditations with the daily readings of Fasting From Our Clutter by Susan K. Rowland.

I will be posting today's meditation here. Please be sure to visit their website daily during Lent for the rest of the series.

ASH WEDNESDAY
GETTING READY TO CLEAR MY CLUTTER

Jl 2:12-18; 2 Cor 5:20—6:2; Mt 6:1-6, 16-18 Today’s readings give me basic instructions for the next 40 days. As a first step to clearing my heart and mind of clutter, I arrange a quiet prayer corner in which to talk to God. I find a suitable place in my home and stock it with a Bible, a notebook, pens (and this Update!). Today, and every day this Lent, I will spend time with God, reading over the Scriptures for the day, listening to what God is saying to me, and writing down what I hear.
