The readings for the 3rd Sunday of Lent help us think about our true desires. The first reading tells of how God satisfied the thirst of the Chosen People in the desert. The psalm reminds us to let God open up our hearts and flow through them. The second reading tells us again that God pours himself into our hearts. The Gospel is the story of the woman at the well, whom Jesus brings to new life through his mercy and compassion. God have mercy on us as we continue our journey through Lent.
