Lent Journey

Forty-day journey towards the cross

Ask, Seek, Knock, Yearn, Ponder the Sacrifice, ultimate cost.

It cost God His only Son

To redeem us, pay the price for our sin; render the curse undone.

Jesus faithfully knew there would come a day

The price of sin with His blood would pay.

He did not turn away and run.

He knew who He was; God’s own Son.

He knew the price.

Willingly, laid down His life, became the sacrifice.

When the nails pierced his hands and whips tore his flesh,

He was “still” and demonstrated holiness.

The people spit and yelled; mocked His name.

He knew He bore our guilt and our shame.

He chose to suffer and die on the cross

So, we could live; He knew we could never pay the cost.                    

Will you choose Jesus? Or will you choose to venture on

Alone. Doing your own thing; missing your true heart story?

Pause. Reflect. Take a minute to see

That God is calling to you and to me.

One small step each day

Building faith along the way

God can start

Speaking His Word into your heart.

It is simply a decision of your will

How you will choose; your time to fill.

Jesus invites you to “Come follow him.”

And become healthy, whole, free from the power of sin
