During Lent, Jesus is the Father’s Servant,
leading us on the path of obedience and trust.
“If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.” (Matthew 16:24, NASB)
When we take the truth to a dark and rebellious world,
we meet fierce opposition from the Evil One.
We are going against the strong current of our culture.
As we do, we are called to disregard all personal costs,
to let our entire life fall to the ground like a seed and die,
in order that eternal fruit will grow.
But Jesus does not drive us out into such self-sacrifice.
He leads us.
He goes with us.
He goes before us.
He demonstrates that such a life is
abundantly joyful,
permeated with
peace,
love, and
constant sufficiency.
During Lent, Jesus is the Father’s Servant,
leading us on the beautiful path of obedience and trust.
Let all who are looking for the very best of life
respond to His personal call, “Follow Me”.

Hymn: Come and Follow Me
