Again this Lent I am appreciating the devotions. I live near a Benedictine Monastery, and I am often buoyed by the compassionate love and gentle yet sustained efforts for peace by the Sisters of St. Benedict. I am likewise uplifted by the heartfelt devotions by the students and staff of Goshen College. May you continue to be blessed by the goodness of Christ's love. What strong, simple, and loving words.

Thankyou.

I need that daily. Too many times I wait with great impatience when I could use that time to reflect on God's goodness no matter what the circumstances. Maybe having a Bible verse for the day to repeat and really think about meaning could be a good way to use the waiting periods of my day.
