The journey begins ...

This is the thought that stayed with me after I read it last night. It's from the "invitation" to a Lenten study on a website called shereadstruth. 

"Lent is a time to embrace grace, to say ten thank yous for every I’m sorry. It is a time to walk with Christ to His cross, to lean in and listen hard to His words and actions as He does for us what we could never do—reconciles us to God for now, forever, for good."

I read parts of about four or five Lenten  devotionals today. I'm still undecided what my focus will be. 

As I continue to deal with the aftermath of my surgery in ways I never expected, I am reminded ... Ha, now I've forgotten what had come to mind!!

Hmmmm. Focus on the positive. Look at things honestly. Find the honest good in a situation. Seek the deeper truth. Stay in the present moment. ...
