As humans we divide our time up into formal Man made eyesores! segments assigned to develop our potentials. The student attends classes, The promise, that is his IQ, is wasted if he does not study. The athlete has formal practice and training sessions. Without effort on his part he can never develop the full potential that is within him.

If it hus become a comfortable set of habits acquired in childhood and religated to a small corner of our week, it means little. But the Liturgical year offers us the Lenten season. It is a formal time set aside for the opportunity to grow. To make things grow takes effort. Ask any farmer. To till the soil, to plant, to prune, to fertilize is to work. To mature in our knowledge of God likewise requires tirne and effort on our part. Lent, then, is a time of action. It is not a time for quiet, ·contemplative re-evaluation.
