Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, marking the beginning of Lent. Lent is a 40 day period of preparation before Easter (Jesus’s resurrection). It is meant to be a period of fasting and praying, preparing out hearts to be right before Jesus on when we celebrate his resurrection. I want to challenge you guys to be fasting something seeking the Lord these next 40 days.

A great website that has a Lent devotional each day is Journey to the Cross. These devotionals walks you through this season of Lent.

I’d also ask each of you to consider fasting something significant to you. I think I may be fasting coffee, since it is a daily thing that I lean on to give me energy instead of the Lord. Let me know if you have any questions about Lent or any of this.
