A Lenten Reflection
As we enter this holy season of Lent, I find myself returning to the words of John’s Gospel: “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes
in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” These words remind us that Lent is not merely a season of sacrifice, but a season of love—God’s love poured out freely, completely,
and without condition.
Lent invites us to slow down, to look inward, and to remember the depth of that love. It calls us to reflect on the ways God continues to meet us with grace, even in our imperfections,
and to consider how we might reflect that same grace to others. Jesus’ command to “love one another as I have loved you” becomes our compass during these forty days. It challenges us to
practice compassion, forgiveness, generosity, and patience in a world that often feels hurried and divided.
This season also offers us a chance to renew our commitments—both spiritual and communal. Whether through prayer, acts of service, or moments of quiet reflection, Lent gives us space to
realign our hearts with God’s purposes. As we journey together toward Easter, may we find strength in our shared faith and encouragement in the presence of one another.
May this season draw us closer to God and to one another. May our prayers deepen, our hearts soften, and our lives become clearer reflections of Christ’s love. And may we walk toward
Easter with renewed hope, trusting that God’s love is always leading us toward new life.
As we begin our Lenten season I encourage everyone to join us on Wednesday evening as we come together for soup and salad and enjoy our Lenten program with a video series by Max Lucado
“3:16 The Numbers Of Hope”.
