Free Yourself

So they took away the stone from the tomb. And Jesus looked upward and said,
"Father, I thank you for having heard me. I knew that
you always hear me, but I have said this for the sake of the
crowd standing here, so that they may believe that you sent
me." When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice,
"Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, his hands
and feet bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped in
a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him and let him go free." Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him.

This lenten season, in the 40 days leading up to Easter, regardless of your religion, take a moment to reflect upon what it is that YOU would like to be "unbound" from?

During these 40 days, give pennance, pray, fast, seek forgiveness, or forgive someone. Do whatever is meaningful to you so you may be unbound from whatever it is that keeps you from feeling the freedom of spirit that you deserve.

Be well.
