Lent Meditation Day 30
Day 30. One of the most heartbreaking accounts in the Bible to me is in Luke Chapter 22, after Peter’s third denial of Christ. “Just as he (Peter) was speaking, the rooster crowed. The Lord turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: ‘Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times.’ And he went outside and wept bitterly.”

Lent Meditation Day 29
Day 29. Tonight at Canterbury House we talked about prayer and the different forms it can take. What I’m learning is that I have to pay attention to catch the spontaneous moments of prayer, when it seems that God is praying for me, or that we are praying together, those moments that sweep me off my feet spiritually.

Lent Meditation Day 25
Day 25. The Last Supper was over. Jesus and the disciples went to the Garden of Gethsemane. Jesus said, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me” (Matthew 26:37-38). Jesus is no stranger to sorrow — heart wrenching sorrow.
Lent Meditation Day 24
Day 24. As they reclined around the table after the last supper, Jesus spoke with the disciples about many things. One was their love for each other. Jesus called this a new commandment. The previous had been to love God with all that they had, and to love their neighbors as themselves. This time he added a new layer, “Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another” (John 13:34).
Lent Meditation Day 23
Day 23. In this season of lent we think about the life, suffering, and death of Jesus. I find this reflection very real and moving. This man who was also God gave his life to serve and love humanity, all of us, for all time.
