  • 2026 Lenten Reflection: Day 26- The Value of Silence

    We continue on our Lenten Reflection: Day 26. It consists of a reading, reflection, and then we end in prayer. I pray that this is a blessing to you this Lent.

     

     

    Day 26: The Value of Silence

    Friday, March 13

    “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.” (1 Samuel 3:9)

    In the hustle and bustle of life, silence can be rare. Lent invites us to embrace moments of silence, to listen to God, and to hear His voice more clearly.

    Reflection:

    Take time today for silence and listen for God’s voice in your heart. Whether it’s in prayer or just listening to the quiet around you, allow God’s voice to speak to your heart.

    Prayer:

    Lord, in the quiet, speak to my heart. Help me to hear Your voice above all others, and to find peace in Your presence. Amen.

     

     

    Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

    Day 25: The Power of Words

    Thursday, March 12

    "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit." (Proverbs 18:21)

    Our words have power. During Lent, we are called to use our words for good—to encourage, to build up, and to speak truth in love.

    Reflection:

    Are there words you need to speak today to encourage someone? Or maybe there’s something you need to confess? Choose your words wisely, knowing they have power.

    Prayer :

    Lord, Guard my tongue and my heart. May my words be kind, encouraging, and full of love, reflecting your heart towards others, Amen.

     

    Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

    Day 23: The Call to Community

    Tuesday, March 10

    "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them." (Matthew 18:20)

    Lent is a time to grow in community. We are not meant to walk this journey alone. As we prepare for the Resurrection, we are reminded that we are part of the body of Christ.

    Reflection:

    How can you connect with others today? Whether through a phone call, prayer, or an act of kindness, let community strengthen you during Lent.

    Prayer:

    Lord, thank You for the gift of community. Help me to grow closer to others and to encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ. Amen.

     

     

    Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

    We continue on our Lenten Reflection: Day 22. It consists of a reading, reflection, and then we end in prayer. I pray that this is a blessing to you this Lent.

     

     

    Day 22: Humbling Ourselves

    Monday, March 9

    “And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” (Matthew 23:12)

    Lent calls us to humble ourselves before God. Jesus showed us the ultimate humility when He gave His life for us on the cross. We are invited to walk in that humility each day.

    Reflection:

    How can you humble yourself today? Perhaps it’s in how you treat others or in submitting your own will to God’s.

    Prayer:

    Lord, help me to walk in humility, just as You did. Teach me to serve others with a humble heart, always seeking Your will. Amen.

     

     

    Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

    Day 21: The Gift of Grace

    Sunday, March 8

    "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God." (Ephesians 2:8)

    Grace is unmerited favor from God, given freely to us. During Lent, we are reminded of the amazing grace we’ve received and called to extend that grace to others.

    Reflection:

    Where in your life can you extend grace today? Is there someone you need to forgive, or a situation that needs mercy?

    Prayer:

    Lord, thank You for Your grace toward me. Help me to show that same grace to others, knowing that we are all recipients of Your boundless love. Amen.

     

     

    Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

    Day 20: Living in Hope

    Saturday, March 7

    “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 15:13)

    Lent is a season of hope. We may experience challenges, but we have the assurance that Christ’s Resurrection brings us ultimate victory over sin and death.

    Reflection:

    How can you live with hope today? Reflect on the hope that the Resurrection brings, and let it inspire you to face challenges with faith.

    Prayer:

    Lord, thank You for the hope we have in Christ. Help me to live with hope, knowing that You are with me and that Your Resurrection brings victory. Amen.

    Day 19: Preparing for New Life

    Friday, March 6

    “Jesus answered and said to him, 'Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” (John 3:3)

    Lent is a time to prepare for the new life that comes with the Resurrection. As we let go of old habits and patterns, we open ourselves to the new life that Christ offers us.

    Reflection:

    Is there an area of your life where you need new life today? Let go of what is old, and embrace the new that God is offering you.

    Prayer:

    Lord, thank You for the new life You offer through the Resurrection. Help me to embrace that new life and to live fully in the hope of Your victory. Amen.

     

    Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

    Day 18: The Gift of Peace

    Thursday, March 5

    "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." (John 14:27)

    Peace is a gift from God, and during Lent, we are reminded to cultivate peace in our hearts and relationships. Christ is the Prince of Peace, and we are called to share that peace with others.

    Reflection:

    Are there areas of your life that need peace? Pray for God to bring peace into those situations and for you to be a peacemaker.

    Prayer:

    Lord, fill my heart with Your peace. Help me to be a peacemaker in my relationships and to reflect Your peace in the world. Amen.
