Lent 2019
Lent is a season of forty days, not counting Sundays, which begins on Ash Wednesday and ends on Holy Saturday.
During this time Christians often sacrifice something in our lives and replace it with extra time in fellowship with God preparing ourselves to celebrate Easter.
Your fellow church members have written some devotionals for each day to help get your extra time with God started. The focus of this year’s Lent readings are the spiritual disciplines of giving, praying and fasting. Matthew 6:1-19 says when you give…..when you pray….when you fast……. Ecclesiastes 4:12 says; A threefold cord is not quickly broken. Giving, Praying and Fasting used together in the life of a Christian makes a strong powerful connection to God. Enjoy your extra time with God!

WORRY
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34
As we walk through this Lent season let us use the word of God as out guide. Each day we face challenges, may new but also many old. We must take each day one at a time and not place upon ourselves more challenges than we pick up ourselves. God know what we can handle at any given time and we should trust Him in that. So as you walk today and each day after just remember that God has you HERE for a reason and that if you turn to Him he will use you where you are.
