Celebrate Freedom and Love
Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover-up for evil; live as God’s slaves. Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God…—1 Peter 2:16–17 (NIV)
God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.—Psalm 62:1-2 (ESV)
The season of Lent is a blessed time of spiritual renewal. Focus on what you can do to open yourself to reach a new level of experiencing God’s grace. Ask Him to help transform your life by building up your faith, and dedicating yourself to be of service.
Righteous Father, help me to look deep within myself, to let go of what is no longer good for me and embrace the new life that comes from You.
