Lent
As we
enter the season of lent, Christian tradition
calls us to a season of repentance and taking
an honest look at ourselves. What in our
lives needs to look more like Jesus? Lent
over the years has encouraged believers
to take a step back out of the ebb & flow
of daily life and seek to see things with
a new, more Christ-like perspective. Many
deny themselves usual comforts in effort
to focus instead on Jesus. Many fast things
from food to television as a way to spend
more time in prayer. Above all, God calls
us to a season of intentional focus on Him.
Here are
some recommended scriptures: Psalm 103,
Joel 2, Isaiah 58, 2 Corinthians 5 & 6,
and Matthew 6.
