This morning is Palm Sunday. For the first time ever, I regret Lent is not longer. Oh yes, part of it is because I did not give up coffee this year. It also has to do with the spirit God has generously poured out with my commitment to the morning and evening prayer offices.
Since my conversion in 1974, I have loved morning and evening prayer. Intermittantly through the years I have been faithful to one or the other. This is the first time I have committed to do both.
I wish we as the Church Militant, the church here on earth at this time, would all commit to these beautiful offices.
I know all my friends pray through the day, and that all their prayers are good--prayers of praise, prayers of repentence, intercessory prayer and prayers of thanksgiving. How much more powerful would our church be if we prayed the same words--the same words prayed by the saints who came before us and now join us in the Church Universal.
I believe this is why my spirit has soared through this Lent, even as my body has been used by Satan to try to bring me down.
Morning and Evening prayer--prayed together through all the time zones across the world, together as one church--it would be a very big earthquake as God would be able to work through us all.
Please try it! I will find you a prayer book if you will~ I love you with God's Love~may your Holy Week honor God and strengthen His church on earth
