3 Visual Prayers for Everyone Beginning Lent

Today is Ash Wednesday, and I invite you into a 40 day journey. I’ll be on it. But your journey will be very personal… very much geared around what the Lord sees you needing. He wants to heal you from all wounding of this world, and allow you into a much closer relationship of support for you. He does have tremendous plans for your life. You will need His strength to take up & fulfill that Purpose.

What does this have to do with LONGEVITY?

The blessing of long life comes from a Power Source Unlimited — GOD.

The more closely we can unite with God, the more we allow Him to remove the obstacles, mistakes, poor judgment, sin and harm that can curtail our lives, both in quantity and quality.

Some people resist “rules,” either spiritual rules or health rules, or both. But much guidance is for our own good, so to the extent we resist proper guidance, we act against our own interests, against our own wellbeing.

If you find yourself resisting wholesome “rules,” you might THINK that you are FREER, but you are LIMITING your resources and disconnecting from the UNLIMITED source of LIFE.

So Lent is a time to avail yourself of God’s merciful, life-giving power. Lent is a time to reflect: What’s KEEPING you from wanting to color within the lines of life? What wounds remain to be healed? Lent is a time to invite Jesus in to heal these wounds. This is necessary so you can soon enjoy new life! And that’s what Easter is about — LIFE after death. Life after darkness, wounding, alienation, guilt, shame, abuse, etc. So take this gift, freely given — LENT, and walk beside the Lord for 40 days, so He can heal the wounds, and prepare your heart for a whole, new life — HIS LIFE, in You.

No matter how long you actually live, it only FEELS like LIFE if you are FREE to truly receive and truly offer & share love, with no wound scars creating barriers to that Love.
