A Moment To Pause: Lent - Wednesday 11th March 2026

Good morning and thank you for joining the Oblate Family Podcast: A Moment To Pause, for today's time of reflection and prayer during Lent. We listen to Anne Walker from Friends of Saint Eugene in Crewe for today's short 90 second podcast Good morning all. Thank you for joining me on this Wednesday of the third week of Lent. The Gospel today is from Saint Matthew chapter five, verses 17 to 19. Where Jesus clarifies his relationship with the Old Testament, stating that he came not to abolish the law and the prophets, but to fulfill them. He brought the law to us, intending to complete, establish a divine authenticity, and by revealing its ultimate purpose.By emphasising that not even a small stone will pass away, he assures us that everything is accomplished. Further on in today's Gospel against minimising the Commandments. By clarifying that his mission is not to be discarded he assures us that he will bring his intended goal himself. I wish you a very thoughtful, peaceful day. Thank you for listening to me. God bless.
