Though difficult to see, the limitations of Lent are actually essential to a life of freedom! Our decisions to curtail consumption set us free to hunger and thirst for God. As we rein in patterns of self-absorption and vanity, we are liberated to encounter his love in the face of the other. And when we commit ourselves to intentional rhythms of prayer, we learn to hear his voice speaking through the chaos and noise of our daily lives.
Inhabit (a devotional journal for Lent by Dwell)
In honor of this season, I will be posting inspiring music for most of the next 40 days. I hope you’ll use this music as an opportunity to quiet and settle yourself; for contemplation, preparation, and thanksgiving. May you be encouraged and realize the felt presence of Peace and Love as you hear the music; may you hear the message meant for you in each of the musical offerings. Wishing you peace and every good!
“What if we view this desert time of Lent as not just a time to reflect or to lament or to confess or to fast, but a time where we learn to be free?”
