God Dwells with Us

by Petrina Lew

Whenever I see this building, I am reminded of my time attending yearly confirmation camps from 2007-2010. Now spending two months in this same building have led me to encounter God countless times in ways I’ve never experienced before. The tent shape of the building is the tabernacle with a firm foundation where the Lord is dwelling through people I’ve encountered and conversed with. Whenever I feel that He isn’t speaking to me, He speaks truth over me through my fellow brothers and sisters.

For those of us who continue to struggle and suffer and grapple with our own darkness, today’s celebration is a reminder that Jesus opens the way to freedom, justice, victory and hope! Just as there is nothing that the light of the sun does not touch, the light of the resurrection touches us all, and illuminates all that is dark within us.

Walking Through Lent: Love Came Down

Pope Benedict XVI encourages us to keep our eyes on the Lord. He writes that the Cross “speaks to all who suffer…and it offers them hope that God can transform their suffering into joy, their isolation into communion, their death into life.” In Christ, the weight of our sin and shame is replaced by His overwhelming, and limitless love. In this very love, we are invited to unite our hearts with Him, to draw close and experience the redemptive, transformative, power of Christ and His sacrifice.
