Lent Devotional: OpenSýnishorn
Day five – ‘Look, look!’
Each Sunday, we will share a poem with you. Treat this as a Sabbath day. Go slow; be still; be open to what the Holy Spirit might say.
A few easy moments taken in the sun;
three small birds blessing me with their songs;
each with their charming particularity;
each showing (and I'd bet my life upon it)
that they are in possession of a soul;
each repeating (and I beg you to listen)
precisely the same refrain:
Look, look, it is spring, it is spring!
Look, look! Life is rising from beneath the ground.
The green river is flowing, the green river is flowing!
It is ready to burst its banks.
The poem is © Gideon Heugh, from Rumours of Light.

About this Plan
Lent is a time of beautiful re-focusing. A time to pay closer attention to the life that lives beyond busyness. To create sacred rhythms that move our feet down paths of goodness. Lent is a sanctuary in time, a seven-week island in a stormy sea. It is a specific, intentional period in which we can reorientate ourselves. It is a time to be drawn further into God's heart.
