Sometimes life gets hard and needs renewal…

These days, do you find yourself weary?  Has COVID worn you out?  Is your life filled with losses big and small?  

You are not alone.  We are living in challenging times.  Uncertainty and a break from previous patterns which brought stability has wreaked havoc upon us all.  We are in need of renewal in mind, body, and spirit.  Now more than ever, we need a deeper connection with God.

Over centuries, Christians have found refreshment and reconnection during the season of Lent.  This period of forty days and six Sundays before Easter has provided needed focus and restoration for weary souls.  Through practices of prayer, self-reflection, reading scripture, worship, and giving alms Christians have found growth in their faith lives.  Lent revives as we participate in spiritual practices and recommit to God.   

Dedicated to providing resources that help regular folks connect with God, Light From This Hill is publishing a new daily devotional for Lent.  Written by The Rev. Dr. Walt Lichtenberger, it begins on Ash Wednesday, March 2.  Each day you will receive an Inspirational Image, a brief reflection, and a prayer.  It will be in your inbox for you as you start your day.  

Guided by Bible readings from Luke’s Gospel, selected psalms, and the book of Job, When the Path Gets Rocky: A Lenten Journey of Sorrow and Joy, seeks God’s presence amid life’s ups and downs.  The devotional enourages the holding of both sorrow and joy together as people of faith.  Trusting in God, we make our way towards Good Friday’s cross and Easter’s empty tomb.
