A Monthly publication for the St. Thomas Mar Thoma Parish, Kuwait

Let light shine out of darkness ...2 Corinthions 4:6

Thomas said to him, “My Lord and My God”. (St. John 20:28)

Christian life is a journey in faith. It is a growth toward maturity in Christ. It is based on the spiritual practice of fasting and prayer, both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament. Jesus begins His public ministry with forty days of fasting and communion with God (Matt. 4:2, Mk 1:13, Lk 4:2). Fasting and prayer is an undeniable character of the Church from the early days (Acts 13:2, 14:23).In addition to fasting and praying as an individual member of the Church, Lent is a time and occasion of communal fast. The Great Lent or the Fifty Day lent is thus connected to the passion of Christ which has accomplished salvation from sin and death. It is a challenge to prepare us to take up the cross and follow Christ. Lent is in fact a spiritual retreat of the church, though which it meditates upon the cross of Christ and submits it in a sense of complete repentance. Its purpose is a real and more intimate experience in abiding in Christ.“During the season of Lent, every member is expected to set apart time for serious reflection, self examination and renewed commitment with fasting and prayer. Fasting should never be observed with ostentation or spiritual pride. Neither is it intended to win favors from God by changing His mind. This is a time in which we wait upon the Lord in fellowship and are transformed to fulfill His will.” (Roots and Wings, p.60)

The exercise of Lent is time of rebuilding the Alters of :-Prayer • Meaningful and confident personal prayer time • Restarting a ceased Family prayer time • Deepening and enriching a shallow prayer timeWord • Intentional and focused reading of scripture • Take one or two books to read and study deeply during this time (you can have your choice) • Try to get a daily devotional book Relationships and Giving • Combating our own shortcomings, addictions (if any), wrong relationships, etc. • Healing time for hatred, anger, mistrust…. • Set apart a certain amount from your income for helping others and for the Mission Work.Lent is the spiritual power to say enough. • Enough to more and more extravagant clothes • Enough to exotic food • Enough to spending spree; to indiscriminate shopping, either at ebay or the local mall • Enough is a bad word in this world of plenty, but can we dare say it, to us and others?Lent is shedding a little taste • To spread the taste of love around • To become the divine taste and fragrance.I urge all of you to please observe this Great Lent with a passion to see and adopt the life of Christ.

Yours in Christ’s lovePanachamoottil Achen

LENTA TASTELESS TIME OR TIME OF DIVINE TASTE?

Dearly beloved in Christ,The Great Lent (Valia Nombu) of the Church begins on 6th March 2011. We commemorate the forty days lent of the Lord in the desert during the first forty days and the passion and death of Christ and together observe fifty days as the lent period.Though it may have many shades of meaning, Lent is primarily a time set apart. In the life of the community of faithful, the Church, lent provides a time set apart for spiritual discipline.
