1 of St. Paul s United Church of Christ, Village of Attica Stop, look and listen This year, the Lenten season begins on Valentine s Day and ends on April Fool s Day. The word Lent comes from old German and English words for Spring. While it may be too soon for actual Spring cleaning, it is the ideal time for some spiritual cleaning. Lenten cleaning helps the Holy Spirit freshen our faith. Lent begins with Ash Wednesday. It gives us the chance to repent which is short for We re sorry, God, for some of the things we do. We re also sorry that we don t always do what we should. We d like you to forgive us, so we can start anew. We really want to follow you more nearly and love you more dearly. Some people do this by giving up something for Lent. Others prepare for Easter through adding special Bible devotions or other spiritual practices. Either way, we are seeking to more clearly see God s ways. We are striving to live more Godly lives. This seeking is a spiritual journey rather than a means to an end, because God isn't a reward, a prize at the finish line of striving. God isn't waiting to be found in a hiding place we haven't stumbled on yet. God wishes to be found and seeks a continuing relationship with us. During Lent, we are to make time for God. We are to stop listening to sales pitches for the latest and greatest technique of well-being. We are to sit with ourselves for a while and be found by the One who has always known exactly who we are and where we are. Our God has loved us from even before we were born! Lent asks us to STOP. It says, Stop and rest a while, as well as Stop doing wrong. t tells us to LOOK. Look inward for an honest self-examination. Look upward to see the cross of Christ offering healing and love. Look forward to the hope of the Resurrection. It tells us to LISTEN. Listen to the words of Christ. Listen for the voice of God. Listen to the blowing winds of the Holy Spirit. Maybe it will help our heart's seeking to know that we are not the seekers. We are the sought after. If we let ourselves be found, we will find God. We will also discover more about ourselves. Stop, look and listen. These three words help us on our journey through the 40 days of Lent. A prayer for Lent: Seeking God, let me stay put long enough to know that you have found me.
