Lent Reflections Day 17: Walk

Pastor Tiffany Hollums decided that each day during Lent, she would choose a word to prayerfully reflect upon. A volunteer suggested reading the lectionary texts and then choosing a word that stood out to her from those passages. Tiffany is sharing her Lenten reflections here and hopes to inspire our readers to join in her journey.

Readings:

• Psalm 81

• Genesis 24:1-27

• 2 John 1:1-13

Reflection:

Living as a follower of Christ is a matter of walking each and every day with a heart open to him. Some days, the path can seem obvious, but most days it is those small steps that add up to a life that is choosing to walk with Jesus. It’s those moments in which we must decide whether we will choose to love, forgive, pray, grow, and listen. It is the times in which we choose whether to be patient, compassionate, gentle and honest. It isn’t whether we are perfect, but whether we want to walk with Christ or think we can manage on our own. It is truly a daily walk.
