A Journey Through the Desert: Finding Joy in Lent
The Little Book of Lent offers a surprising perspective on a season often associated with somber reflection. Brother Alois sets the tone by emphasizing that Lent isn't about wallowing in guilt but rediscovering joy and forgiveness. "Turn toward God rather than turning inward on yourself," he advises, inviting us to see the desert not as punishment but renewal. This transforms how we might approach these forty days. Rather than focusing on what we give up, we're encouraged to look at what we gain: deeper connection with the divine and with others. The Lenten desert offers a counterpoint to our notification-saturated lives - a space where silence speaks and simplicity reveals what truly matters. When we step back from the noise, we create room for joy to emerge, not from external stimulation but from an inner wellspring of peace. Lent is communal as well as personal. "Share with one another," Brother Alois suggests, highlighting that spiritual growth happens in relationship. What if we approached this season not as a solitary trek through wilderness but as a shared journey where we support one another? This reframing of Lent as a season of joy, community, and renewal offers a refreshing alternative to austere interpretations.
