Life-Giving Love

Fourth Week of Lent
March 14, 2021

Opening
Lord, as we draw close to you in these moments, quiet us within that we may hear You. Transform us through our time with you.

Reflection
As we continue on this Lenten journey, may we be drawn ever closer to the One who loves without limit.

Invitation
Read the scripture through slowly a few times. The second time, notice the word or phrase to which where you are drawn. The third time, reflect on how this word or phrase speaks to your life right now.

Scripture: John 3:16
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.”

Prayer of Response
Compassionate One, Your love is unfathomable. Seeing us in all the ways in which we are broken, You desired for more for us. You longed for our wholeness and wellbeing. You yearned for us, You who have loved us from the very beginning. What can we say to such a gift as this? May we offer you all that we are. May we entrust ourselves wholly to You that we may live in loving communion with You and reflect that life-giving love to others, Amen.
