Repentance
Will you embrace forgiveness …
For the impatience you conceded
the harsh tone you repeated
the mistakes you still defend.
For the truth you bent
the judgment you dispensed
the self you repeatedly forgot.
For the friend you disappointed
the person you avoided
the family you had to cut off.
For the times you stayed small
the avoidance of your call
the apathy you willingly embraced.
For the ways you over-indulged
the secrets you told
the people you never meant to hurt.
For the choices you regret
the pain that still upsets
the wreckage that haunts every day.
For the resentment you harbor
the ways that you barter
and all the things left unsaid.
There is forgiveness for you.
Forgiveness for that too.
Forgiveness whose flow never ends
Will you believe it?
Will you receive it?
Will you embrace it as true?

Lent is a 40-day season leading up to Jesus' death and resurrection. Traditionally, Christians use this time to fast, pray, and give to those in need. It's a time to reflect on our need for God and prepare our hearts for the magnitude of Easter. Use this Lent Devotional to guide you through this sacred season with intentionality.
