Excellent programme of reflection for Lent.
This is an ideal book for those who wish to follow a programme of reflection through the season of Lent, devoting a few minutes each day to the exercise. Running from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, each double-page consists of a short scripture passage, an extract from a talk or homily given by Cardinal Hume (mostly unpublished), and a single-sentence prayer. The heading for each day reflects the theme of these readings, while the book's title comes from the reading for Ash Wednesday, and is a theme often returned to by the Cardinal. There is a foreword by the Bishop of Leeds.

All who remember the humility, sincerity, and prayerfulness of Cardinal Hume will find riches in this little book.

A Turning to God
There was a good review of this book on Amazon, so I ordered it in the hope of finding something different for Lent. It arrived within a couple of days and is excellent.
