Book Synopsis Lent Always Takes Us by : David Craig
Download or read book Lent Always Takes Us written by David Craig and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The whole of our lives are a sort of glorious Lent. And so it is in these poems. Most of this book borrows from Bly, who in his poems beautifully turns the Islamic ghazal form to his own ends. These poems, though, try to give all the glory to Jesus Christ, who is the reason why we live and breathe. So often, it seems, contemporary Catholic poets are afraid to give up a secular perspective. This is odd, really, since that point of view will not take us into heaven. In any case, may our Lord forgive us all our stupidity and sins; may the Holy Spirit help us to walk and talk with Jesus, who is Life itself.

Download or read book Valley of Bones written by Sam Gutierrez and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-18 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lent starts dramatically. A smudge of ash is placed on the forehead while ancient words from the book of Ecclesiastes are declared, "You are dust, and to dust you shall return." It's a stark reminder of a painful truth that most of us spend our whole lives avoiding. Such a powerful and concise statement of our human fragility can cause despair. However, the mark made on the forehead is not just an undefined smudge. It is a cross - and this makes all the difference. We are beloved dust - Christ died for us. We belong to Him. The sign of the cross is a mark of divine favor and promise. Just as Christ died and was raised to new life on Easter morning, we too shall rise. God will not abandon his children to the grave. Lent is a 40-day journey that points to a loving God who graciously calls us to put our trust in his power to transform fading dust into brilliant stars.
Download or read book Dust written by Sam Gutierrez and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-27 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many times over the course of our lives we leave the well-marked path of wisdom. We wander, we take short-cuts, we blaze our own trail and eventually...we get lost. When the pain of our wandering forces us to stop and be still, we can sense a subtle homing beacon inside of us. As we listen more closely, we hear a compassionate voice whispering something kindly in the depths of our hearts.Lent is a 40-day invitation to tune our ear and listen to that voice. Lent is also an invitation to weep over the string of disasters left in our wandering wake, to gather our empty stomachs and sad hearts and bravely start the journey home - one foot in front of the other. While we journey, we find courage and strength in knowing that the whisper heard in the depth of our being belongs to a loving God who has been patiently watching and eagerly anticipating our return.
Book Synopsis Waving from a Distance by : Tim Lenton
Download or read book Waving from a Distance written by Tim Lenton and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tim writes, "These poems are not carefully selected, with the less effective weeded out to make way for late arrivals. They were written as a Lent project in 2016, one a day, with the aim of catching the moment and looking back and forward"Tim Lenton writes of one Lent in a lifetime of Lents. He writes from a place familiar to us all, "out in the wilderness between yesterday and tomorrow"; the terrain is one of questions (and few answers) within a landscape of longing, love and loss. There is no artifice in these poems; there is no desire to proselytise or preach. There is humour, grace, humility. And the footnotes to the poems are unapologetically human, self-deprecating. I warm to each poem, each page, each day, and it to me, like a hazelnut in the palm of my hand. Claire Everett,Founder and Editor of Skylark
