Most years I mark this day with an explanation of LENT 40 Days
as I
"BEGIN LENT IN JESUS' FOOTSTEPS"{this is a 4 day YV choice of reading plans}
I am on a longer journey than 4- 6 days but
I will not be here on my blog, except maybe on Sundays
since Sundays are not included in the 40 days.
However, I will be
There is also another "Walk with Jesus" for 50 days and so many other really
time set apart
to commemorate
the 40 days
JESUS
spent in the desert
a period of preparation to celebrate our
LORD JESUS'
RESURRECTION
The journey between today & the celebration of
HIS RESURRECTION
is more than
40 days

So I am not here today until after this time period - this post was done in advance -
as I begin walking closer
"IN THE FOOTSTEPS
of the Savior"

LENT
with
Max Lucado's new book & study guide
which Faith Gateway is starting on March 6th - April 10th
and, of course, I highly recommend this OBS
(even without the books, it's worth it)
Everyone can view Session 1 or
on You Tube
and
You Version
has one week sample plan
"Following Jesus When You Doubt"

I also have a 50 day devotional with a local church
RISEN50 Reasons WhyTHE RESURRECTIONChanged Everything
🙏🙏
by Steven D. Matthewson(not a new book, 2013)
[this book is meant more for the 50 days from the Resurrection until Pentecost]

Have a Blessed Lent Journey!
I know that I will
I read these words in one of the YV Lent plans and agree:
"When we look around at the world today, we can see an awful lot of division and disconnection. Yet there is hope. A deep and thrilling hope. When we realize that we are one in Christ, everything changes. When we embrace togetherness – unity with creation, with each other, and with God – extraordinary things can happen. As you read any devotional for Lent, I pray you have a blessed Lent." Tearfund
