Oh, that Holy Spirit is something else. Can you guess what He has directed me to “give up” this Lenten season - and beyond? WORRY, ANXIETY. Yeah, I know, this is not a new command. But, He’s telling me to get serious about it. NOW! Easy peasy, right? Oh, and He says to write about it. So here I am back on the ol’ blog. And it's been too long. I’ve missed writing, working out my faith on paper, or, rather, on the Dell.
I know very well I cannot do this giving up on my own, in my own strength, with only my own resolve. He’s calling me to constant prayer and conversation with Him. Communion. Such a sweet place. So I’m taking the first step, looking forward to the lessons He has for me. I come in expectation of the constant conversing with my Jesus, day by day, minute by minute (because I am so very weak on my own), casting my cares on Him.
I'm entering this season of Lent meditating on these words from Isaiah 30:15 -
“This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says:
‘In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength . . . .’”
