But I trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.
Listen to these beautiful yet powerful words of St. Paul in his letter to the Corinthians: "We
beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin
who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. Working together
with him, then, we entreat you not to accept the grace of God in vain. For he says, 'At the
acceptable time I have listened to you, and helped you on the day of salvation.' Behold, now is
the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation."
(Psalm 13.5
NRSV)
Taking responsibility for our lives is what the season of Lent is all about. It is about
consecrating our lives anew to Christ. It is about taking that step that no one can take for
us--the step of a deeper and more intensely personal walk with Christ.
Dear God, you call us through Christ to follow you. When we follow we find salvation. Amen.
