TODAY IS ASH WEDNESDAY!
It's the start of our 40 days of Love. During this precious time of repentance, scripture reading and fasting, Marvelous Light is encouraged to fast from 3 things that you hold dear and to commit yourself to study the Word of God.
Read 5 chapters of the Bible every day of lent.
(That's the minimum – Feel free to do more! God will Bless you.)
Fast from 3 things to spend more time with God. Examples:
1) Stop watching TV and REDUCE Social Media. Really!
No excessive popping around taking in junk information. You
don’t know where it came from.
2) Increase Devotion Time (No TV or social media frees up a lot of
time to focus on God.)
3) Decrease food intake (In the bible fasting was a humbling act of
doing without food. Talk with your health care professional and
see what is manageable for you.)
Most importantly, repent and humbly come before the Lord with a renewed commitment.
Commit to two bible studies every week. Join us in-person or on line for A Walk In Word bible study and one more in the week with family, friends or co-workers for at least 30 minutes.
For those who look forward to the challenge of reading the full bible during this time… GO FOR IT!!!
REMEMBER, we listen to those we love. If we truly love God, we will listen and obey God by reading His Word.
