Lent: Tending the Garden of Our Soul

 

"We cannot create growth within ourselves. It is the work of God to create growth and transformation within us. However, we can tend the garden. I can stir up the soil. I can pull out this weed that is crowding other things out. I can tend with my time, my prayer, and my fasting. And when I tend the garden of my soul, that promotes a place for God‘s growth to happen during this season of Lent."

In this first week of Lent, Bishop Alex describes how this interruption to our regular lives is a gift to us, an opportunity to slow down and support the work of God in our lives.
