Lenten Journey
Well, today is Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent. I'm thinking that past thoughts about what Lent and a Lenten Journey should be needs to be changed. So, let me define what the season of Lent means to me and what my Lenten Journey will hopefuly be this year. Lent is a time of personal and corporate reflection about Christ and his journey here on earth. But, it is also so much more than just that. It is a time to reflect upon and build on our relationship with God. Yes, what is your intimate relationship with God. It is not just a time to give up some part of our routine, like not eating between meals, but to add to not just our routine but how we live our lifes. How can I get closer and more intimate with my God? How can I help others in their spiritual journey? Personally, I am hoping to write a new blog everyday during Lent. And I pray that this may help reach others and that the Holy Spirit will move within, around, and through me to this end. I will spend more time in "conversation" with God. There is more that I would like to take on but I hope and pray that I can manage to accomplish most of this as is. What about you? Why don't you join me in this Lenten Journey. You know that you can make comments on each of my posts. Let me know what you think. Let me know how you are doing on your journey.
