2026-02-21 Lent - Day 4 Lent- 1st Saturday Good morning! I hope you are enjoying this season of Lent and growing closer to God. Today, let’s look at a wisdom building scriptures taken from 1 Chronicles 16:11 in the Old Testament. "Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually!" During Lent, this is exactly what we do. We seek the strength of God and use that strength in our everyday life. I realize that I am probably a bit different than most of you, but I tend to think I can handle anything. Fact is, I can’t. This scripture implores us to build a continuous relationship with God and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us. Of course we do that through prayer. "Seeking his face" means desiring an intimate, personal relationship with God, not just asking for blessings. Doing this "continually" means making the pursuit of God a lifelong, habitual, and non-stop journey, regardless of life's circumstances. Lent is a time of reflection, prayer, and raw confession. Part of that is to come to the unique understanding that everything we see, touch, feel, smell, etc is all a part of God’s creation. We CANNOT exist without God. Acknowledging that is the first step to inner peace that we all desire. Let your prayer today be in humility and find the strength of the cross through love, servitude, and faith. Blessings,
