The journey throughout these millennia of history for God’s chosen people is an analogy of what is happening in our lives. The patriarchs and all our forebearers in the faith are part of our family of faith, which led to this moment in history for each one of us. So, this Lent, takes your reflection on the ancient Exodus and the content of the Ten Commandments to the One on that Holy Mountain and go up in this prayer from your heart: “Just like my Fathers in the Faith, I am called to be a father, a mother, in the faith.” Tomorrow, Ash Wednesday, begins our first steps of our very own Exodus.
