Bible Readings for Tuesday of the Fifth Week of Lent

 Reflection of the Day:

Sprinters are usually more fun to watch than marathoners.  They definitely appeal to my attention span.  We need their bursts of energy to inspire us and get us going, but we also need to recognize that most things require more than a sprint.  And there is no contradiction between the two.  Even marathoners sometimes have to inject a short-term burst of speed into their routine. Lent has characteristics of both in various ways.  Lent is a “sprinting period” through the year-long marathon of following the Lord.  And it is more than an Ash Wednesday and Good Friday sprint – it’s 40 “long” days of extra praying, sacrificing and charity.  So it can appeal to both the sprinter and long distance runner in us.
