The 40 days of Lent are to be an imitation of Jesus’ 40 days in the desert. In fact, we are called not only to “imitate” Jesus’ time in the desert, we are called to live this time with Him, in Him and through Him.
‘Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest” (Mt 11:28)’, is the title of the Holy Father’s Message for the 28th World Day of the Sick, held today, February 11, the feast day of Our Lady of Lourdes.
