A Lenten Mosaic -Living In Grace
Lent 2020
Devotion for Sunday,March 22, 2020
*Original watercolors by Madhuri Yadlapati
A road is not just a way of getting from one point to another. Roads capture
our imaginations through literary, musical, and artistic references. They
signify a quest or adventure, a means to an end, a symbol of progress, growth
and possibility and hope. They call us to new beginnings. They offer us grace.
How does the image of a road speak to your journey of faith? Where is this
year’s Lenten journey leading you?
Jeremiah 29:11-13
For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your
welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope. Then when you call
upon me and come and pray to me, I will hear you. When you search for me,
you will find me; if you seek me with all your heart.
Prayer
God of grace and mercy, Source of all gifts who changes us as we cannot
change ourselves, we ask for patience, we ask for understanding, we ask for
compassion, we ask for hope and gratitude so that we may welcome our
collective and individual journeys with open hearts, open minds, and open
hands. By Krista Taves, adapted
