Fr Edward L Looney: Praying with the Church Through Lent, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

How recollected are you during the Collect, the Opening Prayer at Mass? To assist you in entering more deeply into the Mass and the mysteries of this sacred season, Fr. Edward Looney offers short daily meditations and reflection questions so that you may absorb all the richness of the prayers in the liturgy.
Whether over a cup of coffee or while resting in the Lord's Presence before or after Mass, these meditations inspire both fruitful contemplation and vibrant group discussion. Fr. Looney reveals to you how to follow the inspirations of the Holy Spirit more fully and intentionally. Journaling pages are included to help you remember the Lord's mercies and strengthen the resolutions that come to you during the time of prayer.
As you seek to imitate Christ more closely, you will discover:
Ways to open your heart to receive the healing graces God has prepared for you
Five aids God provides to strengthen you when you are weak
"Weapons" that will help you attain victory in the battle against spiritual evils
The advantages brought by fasting, self-denial, small acts of love, and charitable works
Why repentance and frequent Confession bring true freedom
How to develop a concrete game plan to benefit your soul on the journey to Heaven

These practical and relational meditations will help you grow in self-knowledge and wisdom in the "school" of the Holy Eucharist, Our Lady, and the saints. You will experience how God delights in you, grow in wholehearted devotion, and enjoy renewal in body, mind, and spirit.
