Regret…

Turning inward to tune into our conscience, opening our hearts, determining wrongdoing on our part, or participation in an event or action that leaves us saddened, overwhelmed, or racked with guilt, is imperative.
It will also likely expose recessed dark voids and other intolerable wounds that are telltale signs that tending is required.

Lent is a time reserved to let go and surrender to God, while we hand over our woes, wrongfulness, emptiness, and even our self-righteousness as these will place additional stress on a system that longs for peace.
Like most things in life, there is not a one size fits all generic prescription. Misdeeds, sins, transgressions, and offenses are all words that describe a fall from grace, and thus a (gulp) separation from the Lord.
Luckily, there are many ways to atone. Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving can help to reconnect you to God, take charge of your actions, and include others directly or indirectly. Consider it a fast-tracked antidote for karma.
Talking with the Holy One reveals tiny apertures where His light can filter through illuminating ideas to solve ongoing dilemmas, offering novel paths, and bestowing soothing comfort.
He hears you, loves you, and is setting in place specific possibilities for your movement forward.
Fasting is fiercely visceral, and aligns our corporeal bodies with Christ’s refusal of food for forty days in the desert. The deliberate hunger and the radiating light sifting through our cracks of imperfection can fortify an awakening by stirring depths that have been dormant and neglected.
Discomfort can be a merciful and miraculous stimulus.
Charitable acts may be what you seek, and fortunately, they rank with a special ability to heal oneself while aiding another.
The recourse chosen is up to you.
Penitence and contemplation can lead to discipline, union, and intimacy with Christ Jesus, who fully understands humanness. The Divine Light is waiting to fill you. Which opening will He shine through?
~ ” Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord,” Acts 3:19. ~
