"Jonah began his journey through the city, and when he had gone only a single day's walk announcing, "Forty days more and Nineveh shall be overthrown," the people of Nineveh believed God; they proclaimed a fast and all of them, great and small, put on sackcloth." Jonah 3:4-5
Day 7 of our Lenten journey: Do we not all need a reminder to slow down and change our ways? I am glad Jonah announces each year in the form of lent to look at our lives. Have we moved closer to God or farther away in the past year? Do we give up our old, wrongful ways and change. It is a constant battle in the culture we live in. The people of Nineveh needed a reminder and so do we. ""This is the time of fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel." Mark 1:15
Dear Father, You know my prayers this morning and those things that cause me pain. Remove the plank from my own eye before I try and correct another. May the teachings of Your Son Jesus permeate my spirit and we become one in action. Prayers for those in financial need, may their prayers be answered in their hardships. Thank You Father for always being there. Triune God be my all, Triune God be my all, Triune God be my all!
Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
