Lenten Mini-Reflection
"We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer?" (Romans 6:2)
That is why Lent is about death. We have to DIE to our old selves, DIE to sin so that Christ can make us a new creation. Death is always painful. But resurrection is beyond the best we can imagine!
oh so true Claire! a great reminder as we finish up this Lenten season. God bless

Lent is my favorite time of year.
