#GratefulEveryday Lenita

I share about being given an extra $10 from the cash machine at the grocery store and how I was clear on that being a distraction!  I'm asking God for millions and I don't intend to get that $10 at a time....that's not who my God is!....

He makes a way in the wilderness and a stream in the wasteland!  God sees our circumstances in a way that we never could.  He's not limited by our limitations....If only we could see ourselves and our situations as God sees them.

As we begin Lent, a season of reflection and renewal, let us start within and work our way out.  Let us start with God, who is our Lord and Creator, and as for a new beginning....a mulligan...a chance to get it right again.  Thankfully, He doesn't get tired of us, and loves us in spite of and because of our mess!  

Alleluia! The Lord is Risen! We can face all of our trials, tribulations, sorrows, and more because of Jesus.  He died, was buried and rose again for you and me!  The Lord is Risen Indeed!  Alleluia!

This is a hard day for Christians as Jesus was intimate with his disciples by eating together, washing feet and just being together... even as one of them betrayed Him even unto death...

Jesus was committed to the struggle. Even when he knew his destiny of death was soon to be fulfilled, he was still out there raising people from the dead and being unbothered by betrayal.  In the hardest of times, Jesus knew the key was keeping His eye on God.  What are you doing in the hardest of times?!...
