Lent 2026: Restored in Christ
Our Lenten journey is a path of return. Over five weeks, we will focus on the pillars of our faith— Week1- Repentance, Week 2- Humility, Week 3- Self-Denial, Week 4- Prayer, and Week 5- Sacrifice—not as ends in themselves, but as means by which God restores us. Join us as we prepare our hearts for the joy of Easter.
Approaching the Bible with Your Heart
We often treat the Bible like a textbook—something to study and master. But in a devotional moment, it’s better to approach it as a love letter. You don't just study a letter from someone you love; you listen for their heart. Here’s a simple way to read today: First, pause. Before you open the pages, open your heart. Take a breath and whisper, "Lord, speak to me." Second, read slowly. Don't rush. Take just a few verses. When a word or phrase stands out, stop. That’s not a coincidence; it’s a nudge from the Holy Spirit. Finally, listen. Ask God one question: "What does this mean for my life today?" The goal isn't just to get through a chapter. It’s to let the living God get through to you. Prayer: Father, thank you for your Word. Help us not just to read it, but to receive it. Speak to our hearts today. Amen. #kusezobamnandinoYesu
