Season of Lent
As you enter into this Morning Prayer, remember that God is with you and ready to speak to you because he loves you. Enjoy the presence of your Lord and Savior. Pray as you are able: use the entire email or for a shorter time of prayer, be led through all five sections but focus on one element in each of the sections.
Lenten Meditation
“Lent is a time for discipline, for confession, for honesty, not because God is mean or fault- finding or finger-pointing but because he wants us to know the joy of being cleaned out, ready for all the good things he now has in store.”
— N. T. Wright
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help us to know the joy of being cleaned out. Strip us of our pride and lead by your Spirit for the good things you delight in giving us. Amen
Readings: Psalm 95 & Exodus 17:1-7
REMEMBER – Today is a feast day! Sundays are in Lent, but not of Lent. Break your fast, gather for worship with God’s people, and celebrate Christ’s resurrection.
