‘’Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?”
Isaiah 58:6
Lord, on this Friday of Lent, as we abstain from meat, help us to see how we need to abstain from things and actions that we are too attached to and that hinder our freedom to love You and one another. Amen.
