GB News Daily Reflections – Sunday 9th March

In today’s Daily Reflection, Margery a minister in the north of England discusses the importance of Lent and “big questions.”

She compared Lent to “going to rehab” and discussed the importance of detox.

She said “Following an addiction, you suddenly have no phone, no access to alcohol, a break with your relationships. Or maybe it’s going to spend a week in a retreat in a monastery as a spiritual exercise.

“Many people still intentionally practice the discipline of lent. They choose to change their rhythm of life or eating patterns, and to practice simplicity, detoxing from familiar comforts and distractions.

“It can be a time when you ask the big questions of life who am I? Why am I here? Why is life worth living? Or maybe it’s how am I doing?”
