Lent | Reading 26
The season of Lent provides a time for us to contemplate the depth and passion of our commitment to Christ as we approach Holy Week and Easter. Forty days are set aside as a sacred time to remember the forty days of fasting and prayer that Jesus spent in the wilderness before beginning His earthly ministry.
Today’s readings at Lent:
My enemies, don’t be glad because of my troubles! I may have fallen, but I will get up; I may be sitting in the dark, but the Lord is my light.
Micah 7:8 CEV
Micah 7:8 NASB
Micah 7:8 NIV
Micah 7:8 MESSAGE
Do not judge me by my successes, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again.
Nelson Mandela
