Scripture Journaling During Lent

By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return” (Genesis 3:19).

Ash Wednesday, which signals the beginning of Lent, is this week. This time in the church year we concentrate on our Savior’s sacrifice for our sins and culminating in the joyous resurrection on Easter. As a child, I did not enjoy the solemness of this season. It seemed the music was always sad and slow. I have since grown to love the words that express God’s great act of love and sacrifice.

Wanting to grow in my faith, I have since tried different ways to study God’s Word. A helpful tool offered by LWML is a Lenten journal to help you weave through the Scriptures and gain a deeper understanding of Christ’s love for us.
