Our faith journey is all about being connected to God. Our Heavenly Father loves us; he knows us and he wants us to know him. But a long time ago, Adam and Eve disobeyed God in the garden and sin entered the world. That sin separated us from God. That is, until God sent his son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. Now, BECAUSE OF JESUS we can be reunited with God through our relationship with Jesus. When we make a decision to accept God’s gift of salvation and become a Jesus follower, we reconnect with God and enjoy the abundant life he gives.
Have you been wondering what Lent is all about? Have you thought about introducing your family to this sacred season as a way to prepare your hearts for Easter?
