Whether I give up something or take on something else, the goal is the same. I want to be more like you, Lord. I want to accept your unconditional love and love others as you love me.
We live each day the best we know how. Unfortunately for us, we are extremely limited. It's the noise of everything...---T.V.... radio...kids needing...relationships wanting...jobs demanding...---that mutes the most important thing of all...the voice of God.
It's ideally an everyday, all the time mission to hear God speak into my spirit and over my life.
But, it takes intention and a true desire to live on purpose.
I pray that today, Ash Wednesday, will be only one day in a lifetime of seeking God and listening for the still, quiet voice that is the Lord's.
Psalm 46:10 "He says, Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted among the earth".
May the next 40 days and beyond be a time of reflection and sacrifice and may we be consecrated (set apart) for God. Blessings!
