Repentance is Turning to God


Repentance is turning to God, 
away from dependence upon everything that isn’t God.
Every day is a good day to repent 
and learn to trust God more.

for the things You desire.
Then fill all those desires.
Amen.

Dwell on Him


What to give up for Lent: 
The vain struggle to overcome sin. 
It has already been overcome 
by Jesus the Messiah. 
Dwell on him.

and ignoring the remnant echoes

Today I silence all the voices that speak out against me.
The blood of King Jesus declares
much better things over me.

the meaning of anything 
until we find Christ 
within it.
