"Salvation, in fact, is gift, grace of God, but for it to have effect in my existence it calls for my consent, an acceptance demonstrated with deeds, that is, in the will to live like Jesus, to walk behind him ... [Lent, each year] invites us to renew our decision to follow Christ on the path of humility in order to participate in his victory over sin and death." - Pope Benedict XVI, 17 Feb 2010.
May we constantly recognise the gift that God has given us, and always strive to accept His gift by the way we each live our lives.
