Reflection

The Season of Lent 

 

Dear Lord,

 

Lent is a time for renewing our lives as Christians – as followers of Jesus.

May the Spirit who guided Jesus

to a life of self-sacrifice, self-giving and love

inspire us to follow in his footsteps.

 

Lord send us your Spirit to help us walk the journey of Lent

with honesty, faithfulness, generosity and love.

Help us to renew our belief in you and to show this

by our efforts to talk with you in prayer, to turn away from sin

and to care for those in need.

 

Amen
