shift

Opening Prayer: Risen Jesus, what a joy to enter into a season that celebrates new life!  Help us to pay attention to all that is being born, or raised to new life, both within and around us.  Amen.

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:17

Journal: Where do you sense new life within and/or around you?  How will you embrace it and celebrate it?

Reflection:

        shift

we must be intentional

about the shift

from lent to eastertide

or else we will continue

to be consumed by

what needs to die

and neglect the beauty

of the new that is

already being born

Prayer

Closing Prayer: Thank you, Lord Jesus, that because of the resurrection we are able to move from asking, “What must die within me?” to asking, “What beautiful thing is being born within me?”
