"Jesus said to him, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." John 14:6
I find myself preparing for lent this year, contemplating the life of Christ. Not normal for me, I would stumble into lent. The verse above asks us to do that, to consider the path of the Lamb of God. He is true God and true man but for Him to be reunited with the Father, He had to do His will. Not an easy task but He did. None of us will face what He faced but we will each be prepared for heaven in our own way. Will we walk as Jesus did or will we seek a lie? "Consider it all joy, my brothers, when you encounter various trials,". James 1:2. Ash Wednesday is two days away, is the Spirit drawing you into the desert to prepare you as He did His Son, Jesus? Walk the way of Christ and find life.
Dear Father God, prepare me as You did Your Son. You gave Him everything He needed to be reunited with You. Give me a willing Spirit, give me insight and feed me truth. I thank You for Your love and I look forward to the day. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Queen of Saints, pray for us.
