  • Summary

  • There can be something greatly troubling about the reality of the human heart. Human beings are, of course, capable of love, justice, and acts of great self-sacrifice. And yet there seems to remain within us a deep-seated inclination to turn away from the path of life and flourishing that God has set before us.

    Fr Sam Rossiter-Peters explains how in scripture the Israelites in the wilderness had seen firsthand the miraculous works of God. They had seen the plagues.

    The question this Lent is, will we allow him to do his work within us? Will we admit that we do create idols all the time of power or of wealth or of self-will? And will we submit to the love which has the power to change us? Or will we hear Jesus's words of lament spoken over us as they were spoken over Jerusalem? Let us not be a people who had the chance to be healed but refused because of our stubborn hearts. This Lent, let us grasp our fresh chance to decide. Let us be gathered under his wings as a hen gathers her brood.
