""𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐫𝐞𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐲 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠."

Lent has always been a season I’m familiar with, pero dati, hindi ko talaga naiintindihan ang ibig sabihin nito. Parang routine lang dati and fasting on certain days, hearing Pabasa sa paligid, at nakikita ang ibang tao mas seryoso sa panalangin at reflection. Hindi ko lagi napapansin kung paano ko talaga ini-aapply sa sarili ko.

Ngayon, Lent feels more personal. It reminds me of Christ’s sacrifice and how He gave everything for us. It’s a time to slow down, think about my actions, at maging mas mindful sa pakikitungo ko sa iba. It also reminds me to stay connected with God, kahit sa simpleng paraan lang, like taking a few minutes to pray and ask for peace and not just for myself, but for all the people I love and for everyone around the world.

Lent isn’t about doing everything perfectly o paggawa ng malaking sakripisyo. Even small efforts, like being more patient, controlling my words, o pagiging mas mabait kahit sa simpleng bagay, already matter. Hindi ako perfect at minsan nakakalimot din ako, pero that’s what makes it real. Lent is about trying, reflecting, at slowly growing— becoming a better person and getting a little closer to God each day, while remembering Christ’s ultimate sacrifice and praying for peace and love to surround everyone.

Many of us aspire to do pious acts and penance this Lent—especially, fasting, prayer, and almsgiving. Yet in reality, many of us still stumble and fail.

Despite that, let's not be discouraged for Lent is never about perfection. Rather, it's a personal journey that requires perseverance as we seek God.

Our frailties never disqualify us; instead, they reveal just how much we need to cooperate with His grace, for we cannot always rely on our own strength.

Lent has been practiced in my family ever since I can remember. But this Lent season has brought me new enlightenment and experiences I could never have imagined. As the Lenten season started during the Ash Wednesday mass, we were able to be blessed and get ashes. This was my first experience attending an Ash Wednesday mass as a freshman at Adamson. During the mass, we were able to pick up lessons that somehow have greatly resonated with us, especially since I was able to attend it with my fellow klasmeyts. Not only did I learn, but I was also able to apply it in my daily life.

During this season, I was fasting as a form of reflection on my devotion to Jesus Christ, and also reflecting on what others are experiencing. Not only that, as a form of self-discipline, I also tried to give up the things that I usually endulge to. I have also realized that this Lent season will be very special to me as I get to pray, reflect, and practice my devotion with my fellow klasmeyts who joined me in this journey of self-repentance. Lastly, I also learned that not only did this help me get closer to God, but it also helped me on knowing myself. As said in Matthew 6:17-18, “ But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” Reflect and fast on your own, as God will be your witness, and he will not let you be in vain.

"...𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐬' 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐫𝐲."

Jesus didn't think twice to resist giving into temptation. But how about us who are just mere humans, fighting off evil which leads us further astray from the teachings of Christ. Are we going to be successful in deflecting what the Devil tempts us to do?

During Lent, in our small little ways we can try abstaining and fasting. The fact that an effort is made goes to show that we can also sacrifice something. This sacrifice, while it cannot be compared to what Jesus did for us, became the gestures that come from a place of love which on its own matters a lot. This is very timely as this is the moment we can commemorate why and to whom do we do this for. The coming season wouldn't define or measure our adoration for Christ but it would give us a time to pause, feel, and find peace in what He really means to us.

As we resonate through this Gospel and relate it to our lives, we would see Him in every way and every day. For Jesus' existence, isn't only relevant to when He was alive or when He had ressurected. Or simply because Lent is near. Yet, it serves as a lesson to be embodied in our hearts, mind, and spirits for as long as we live.
