Fiat 40 Journal

A Women’s 40 Day Journey to Renewal, Restoration and Redemption

About Fiat 40 Journal

FIAT 40 is a forty-day journey for women that incorporates daily reflections, questions and journal entries, along with weekly action items inviting each one to grow spiritually in closeness with God.  Fiat 40 was created by a group of spiritual sisters traveling an intentional journey together in the pursuit of heaven; while making visible or, embodying our vocation as woman, wife and/or mother. This beautiful earthly pilgrimage often includes not only love, but suffering in the journey we share. There is healing in the journey if we allow it.  The cross is never final and redemption is found in joining our suffering with Christ's Passion and living in the light of His Resurrection.  

Fiat 40 Journal Lenten Study

Standing at the foot of the cross of Jesus, Mary stood strong in faith, hope and steadied love, in Adoration at the cross. This was hers, to watch and accompany her son upon the wood; from manger to cross. He had not sheltered her from pain, nor kept her free from it. This was her dignity, her choice the essence of her fiat; she bore the right to stand here.

With Mary as our model of joining our suffering with the suffering of Jesus on the cross, we journey through Lent. May this Lent be a sacrificial time and a time of recognizing redemptive suffering in the gift Jesus gave for us, and the example Mary gave in standing firm in faith, love, and hope in the Resurrection. 

If you are looking for a new approach to prayer and reflection during Lent, please consider FIAT 40 JOURNAL for yourself and your community of faith.
