Wednesday of the Second Week of Lent
Do you plot against the just?
Do you destroy others with your tongue?
Do you watch others in order to trap them?
What do you want from Jesus?
Can you drink his Chalice?
Are you the servant of all?
Questions from a Treatise on The Lord’s Prayer by St. Cyprian
- Are you living God’s teaching about unity?
- Do you pray for all of God’s people?
- Have you broken the bond of unity?
- Do you give thanks?
(Office of Readings, Second Reading for Monday of the Eleventh Week of Ordinary Time)
