Monday of Holy Week
Might Lent be about extinguishing the light we rely on, to reveal the darkness within and ensure our rescue? Isaiah 59:9 paints a tragic picture of sin, "We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows." Sin's shadows are subtle: pride, self-reliance, judgement and arrogance. My list- what is yours?
I want to walk in God's light that I might truly see.
Medicine from Sacred Scripture;
"With you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light." Psalm 36:9
"If we come to the Physician, if we ask Him, He will not hide from us, but will eagerly disclose to us which of these medicines make us whole." John Chrysostom Fourth Century Homily. Medicine heals our bodies and soul medicine brings healing to our souls. Come find the medicine your heart longs for; learn from the Sacred Writings of the early church fathers and from Sacred Scripture and be made whole.

- Come peer through the lens of Sacred Writings and Scripture to know ourselves and be made whole. There is always medicine to apply in our lives: emotional, relational, social and spiritual. My prayer is that the words of the early church and scripture will inform our identity and bring us healing that equips us to know and serve God with all our hearts.
