METROPOLITAN ANTHONY (PACKANICH): THE LENT IS INTENDED TO RESTORE THE CONNECTION BETWEEN OUR SOULS AND GOD

In these tragic days we, like never before, can approach the Lord.

Because exactly in the state of existential treat all secondary casual things in our life drop out. A soul gets naked and shows its true condition.

It’s very important to direct this state to God. Because if in stressful situation, soul is filled with hate, anger, fear and despair instead of aiming to our Savior, it means that it’s more blind than in days of comfort and wellness.

But even in such state there’s the hope to return to Lord. It’s only needed to remember about that without His will nothing can happen with us.

Open the Psalm. All praying lamentations of a suffering soul, especially of the one which is at risk, are collected in this book. With clear holy words we can adjust soul on right way, establish a contact with Lord.

After all, exactly to this — to the restoring of the connection between our souls and God — the Lent is intended.

Now there’s the time when all unnecessary things go away. The time which umasks. The time which shows deeds, but not words. The time which gives the possibility to show your love to God and neighbors maximally. Let’s take it!
