As we move into the 3rd week of Lent, it is important for us to keep asking ourselves: "Why am I observing this season of prayer and fasting?" In order to try and give us some deeper insight, I am including a few quotes to remind us of the 'why.'
- “During Lent, we are called to embrace the struggles that make us stronger.” — Jonathan Edwards
- “Lent is a time for discipline, for confession, for honesty, not because God is mean or fault-finding or finger pointing but because he wants us to know the joy of being cleaned out, ready for all the good things he now has in store.” — N.T. Wright
- “Lent affords us the opportunity to search the depths of our sin and experience the heights of God’s love.” — Chuck Colson
Thought: Do you still have your 'why' for this Lenten season?
