**The season of Lent**

We could just as well say “the season of Advent.”

These dry prayer times can show up anytime!

I always ask for forgiveness and mean it before prayer. I can have a wonderful presence and appreciation. I think a real key is forgiveness. But before the mountain top experiences with the Lord sometime we have the "in the valley" moment before the Mountain experience.

Also our Catholic prayers are always about other people because with the intention we have others concerned in the prayers. The Divine Mercy is one of my favorites. We are giving out.

Remember what Christ declared In giving you are receiving. In giving out prayer for others we receive. At least I feel the presence at these key moments of pray. I think it can have a lot to do with how much we mean it within our souls too. Not to judge others I think God handles us differently.

When I read scripture and sense a new understanding this is exciting and uplifting. Thus a new experience and presence of awe of our Lord.

Also for a feeling of natural health I use vitamins and Omega 3's. I have found out omega 3's fight depression too. When I would not use omega I could feel it. Then I looked it up. A lot of people believe it too for natural health and well being. I use "smart balance" spread which is loaded with omega oils. LOL! I hope I am not too much off track of the main subject. LOL!!
