Maud & Family
Dear Friends in Christ,
The purpose of Lent, I understand, is precisely this: to see my Redeemer’s conflict – not my own, because by myself I don’t stand a chance against the old evil foe.
But with Jesus by my side, on my side, surrounding me, strengthening me, directing me, lifting me when I fall …and forgiving me, I do have more than just a chance – I have my Redeemer’s own promise of victory, that He will deliver me from every evil and welcome me into mansions prepared for all who trust him.
