Lent with St. Clare: First Sunday of Lent

"For most people, love carries some sort of romantic connotation. Love, though, is much broader than that. A shining example of that is Clare's love for Christ. She and Francis also had very loving relationship. Yet neither of those fit the traditional definition to which we often default. Lent is a perfect time for us to delve into the deeper meaning of this emotion.

"The challenge we face is to seek out that deeper meaning and the ways in which we can manifest it in our lives."

Franciscan Media is offering a special Lenten series of meditations, "Lent with St. Clare." The mediation for the First Sunday of Lent is as follows:
