The Holy Spirit spoke to me for sure! I am sure he did for others! I just knew you were spot on! That can only come from the Spirit!🕊

Thank you so much for this reflection which is really a teaching more than reflection. You have not only answered many questions I have had about Lazarath and the rich man story, a favorite passage of mine, but other questions I have had about Purgatory and spiritual growth! This is a completely new take on Lazarath and the rich man, at least for me. Thank you again!

Thanks so much! I am sure it is not a new take. I read a lot - something probably just stuck with me. I had no idea where to start on these readings. I prayed and asked the Holy Spirit to guide me. I sure hope He did!

Wow - thank you so much for this beautiful reflection today. I especially liked, “The goal of Lent is for us to identify what separates us from God, to pray more, to go to Confession and reform our lives.” I am going to write this down and remember these words through the rest of Lent.
