A meditation by Steve Haarman
A new February day finds us
in the gray days again. They
are not a stranger to us. The
snow has weighted on the
branches in some areas while
the wind has blown others bare
and green. Valentine’s Day has
passed, and now we prepare for
lent, which leads up to the
passion and death of Jesus on
the cross. When we think that
our sins were the reason for this,
we are sickened and sorry. We
should reform and establish new
goals for ourselves. In a commercial
world, this is not the easiest thing
to do, but still worth doing. If Jesus
died for us, what can we do for Him?
He told us to go to the fringes and
help those in need. We should
double down in prayer and good
works. We can judge ourselves and
constantly set new challenges so
we can feel part of His passion and
helped to some degree the carrying
of the cross.
