So our community is walking through Lent this year by following the idea that God gives us grace to cooperate with the transformation that He desires for us. This has been something that has found its way into my body, mind and soul. I've been wrestling with it for several years now, and I am finally starting to get it...a bit...sort of.
So here's how I've been trying to cooperate:
Week 1: The Body
Ashes
Prayer of anticipation
Breathing the Breath of God
Tuning my senses to sing His grace
Week 2: The Body
Give it away
Build something for someone else
Don't change your clothes
Invite someone to your table
I'm gonna take some individual posts to flesh these out and give a bit of my experience with these practices. I hope and pray that you have taken, are taking, and will take the opportunity to live into the grace that God is bestowing on all of us. May these things help you look my like Jesus.
shalom,
matt
