thirst.

in the month of water

Our approach to Lent and Pascha has begun. Last year we had the 'Step by Step through Lent and Holy Week' course. This year we hope to blog some words as we together walk slowly towards the great Passion of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Every week is another step in this journey.

We begin with the Sunday of Zaccheus (Sun 17th Jan)

"Seek, search, want God - everything is dependent on this. No matter what the condition of your life, your circumstances, the context or what place...just desire God.
One cannot reach God with ones brain. That is impossible. One reaches God with ones desire. That is possible.
The place where ones desire is met, is in the Liturgy. In the liturgy ones thirst for God is quenched."
