When we pray, God changes our hearts, makes it cleaner, more understanding, more generous, transforms our negative attitudes, and creates a new heart full of charity.
Prayer generates love. It induces us to inner conversion. Prayer leads us to do good works for God and our neighbors. In prayer we regain the strength to emerge victorious from the snares and temptations of the world and, of course, the devil.
Christ invites us and leads us to imitate him this Lent. Before beginning his saving mission, he retired to the desert for forty days and forty nights. There he lived his own Lent, praying to his Father, fasting... and afterward, he went out into our world sharing his love, compassion, tenderness, and forgiveness.
