This week on your Lenten journey, you will reflect on what makes you weary in life. Are you weary of seemingly unresolvable conflicts both personally and globally? Do you feel forlorn about your progress in the spiritual life? Lent is only two weeks old; are you perhaps already growing weary of it? Jesus rested at the well in Samaria when he felt weary and tired, isn't that permission for you to do the same? Without guilt and as a Lenten exercise, rest for a few hours this week. Perhaps you will meet someone like the Samaritan woman who questions you in such a way that you will discover a truth about yourself. Share with us what makes you weary. What was the result of your time of rest?
