Lent Week 5- Jesus is Faithful.

Small Portion (Watch the video and use the prayer below every day)

Daily Prayer (Might Seem Familiar?)

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’ For Thine is the Kingdom, the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Medium Portion

Read Psalm 139

How does this Psalm strike you?

How would your life be different if you really believed and accepted the words in this Psalm?

How does God’s intimate knowledge of you and your life pair with the abounding love He has for you?

Large Portion

"One thing we do know: We don't comprehend the love of Jesus Christ. Oh, we see a movie and resonate to what a young man and woman will endure for romantic love. We know that when teh chips are down, if we love widly enough we'll fling life and caution to the winds for the one we love. But when it comes to God's love in the broken, blood-drenched doby of Jesus Christ, we get antsy and start to talk about theology, divine justice, God's wrath and the heresy of universalism.

The saved sinner is prostrate in adoration, lost in wonder and praise. He know repentence is not what we do in order to earn forgiveness; it is what we do because we have been forgiven. It serves as an expression of gratitude rather than an effort to earn forgiveness. Thus the sequence of forgiveness and then repentance, rather than repentance then forgiveness, is crucial for understanding the gospel of grace."

-Brennan Manning The Raggamuffin Gospel
