Epic Movement

Today is Good Friday.

While we were still weak, at the right moment, Christ died for ungodly people. It isn’t often that someone will die for a righteous person, though maybe someone might dare to die for a good person. But God shows his love for us, because while we were still sinners Christ died for us. So, now that we have been made righteous by his blood, we can be even more certain that we will be saved from God’s wrath through him. If we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son while we were still enemies, now that we have been reconciled, how much more certain is it that we will be saved by his life? And not only that: we even take pride in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, the one through whom we now have a restored relationship with God.
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭6‬-‭11‬

Today marks the beginning of Lent. It’s a time to remember what Jesus did for us on the cross, prepare our hearts, and journey deeper with the Lord before Easter.

During Lent, people give up something (fast), spend time in prayer, and give. Whatever you decide to do, we pray this season is a time of reflective, hopeful, and meaningful connection with God.

➡️ What are you doing for Lent? Feel free to leave a comment and share - it might be an encouragement to others.

“We wait in hope for the Lord; he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love be with us, Lord, even as we put our hope in you.”

Psalm 33:20-22
