During Lent you can connect more deeply with Jesus in prayerful self-examination, confession, and repentance. Jesus prepared in the wilderness for his public ministry. He prepared for a journey that would eventually lead him to the Cross. Lent invites each human heart to join with Jesus in journeying toward the Cross and preparing for the surprise of new life at Easter.

A Lenten Invitation

This Lent: Wilderness

Lent begins in the wilderness. The Spirit guides Jesus into the wilderness where he comes face to face with temptation and struggle. Yet, in his forty days of fasting, resisting, and wandering, Jesus is shaped and formed for ministry.

Similarly, through the wilderness of Lent, we are invited to surrender to the wild leadings of the Spirit. We rarely enter the wilderness willingly, but hopefully through our wandering we remember who we are and whose we are. The wilderness can become sacred even if it remains dangerous. There is no wilderness space too harsh or threatening for God’s love. In the wilderness our faith is born, nurtured, challenged, and resurrected. May it be so for you this season.
