Wednesday April 3rd 2024

How was Lent for you? Did you fast? Did you pray? Did you contemplate?

How was Easter? Did you rejoice? Celebrate?

Today’s Word is CONTINUE.

Whatever you did during Lent that brought you closer to the Lord – continue it!

Just because the season of Lent is over doesn’t mean we stop praying the Psalms, stop contemplating what God is saying to us, or stop listening for his leading.

Just because Easter was Sunday doesn’t mean we stop celebrating The Resurrection on Monday.

Did you give up something for Lent? Was it an unhealthy food or a bad habit? Continue not eating it. Continue not doing it.

Did you set aside a special time to pray the Psalms? To devote time to prayer in general? Did you spend more time in Scripture? Continue!

Having used Lent as a time to prepare for the resurrection, let us continue to live in that resurrection mindset – preparing for the resurrection yet to come.

The Scripture that comes to mind is Hebrews 12:1.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.

Continue the race – keep going where God is leading you, doing what God has for you to do.

So what are you going to continue??
