What has your experience been?

So how has Lent been for you?

Have you deepened your relationship with God? Have you grown in your faith?

My Lent has been one of challenges and deep moments with God. I have seen some of the darkest moments of my life, here and now and from my past, but the light is that God has made. Much deeper impact on my life this Lent. He has walked with me as He always does, but His presence is ever more apparent to me… I have felt my Lord and Savior guiding me and talking to me, and if this is what I get to experience I will take the deep dark valleys, because I know that He will always see me through.

Daddy God, thank you for being ever present with me and guiding me through the hard times that come against me. Help me to stay in you shelter, to rest in your presence, even if the world is raging and storming all around me. You alone give me peace in the midst of life’s wars. Thank you for loving and keeping me, help me to be like you and love all around me, especially those that bring the darkness. Amen!
