Thoughts from my Pastor in our monthly newsletter:
Lent is a time for renewal and transformation. It’s a time for
us to wrestle with what’s holding us back from
truly living. I mean TRULY living, not just
existing or taking up space and resources.
“Every man dies, but not every man TRULY
lives,” said Braveheart. And maybe this is you or someone you love,
breathing but not truly living because of fears,
worries, anger, and bitterness. You need release and freedom from what’s holding you back. On Easter, the day of the resurrection, early
Christians rose to the east to meet the warmth
of the rising sun, a symbol of new birth, new life
and… HOPE. Lent for them, was a time of
preparation culminating with their own
“resurrection” from the cold, unforgiving
darkness of a life without hope. Maybe this is
what you’ve been looking for… a resurrection.
Continued tomorrow.
