By way of sorrow

Lent 2013 Cover   Psalm 126

Question for reflection:
What are the things you dream of? What are the things that make you laugh? What are the things that give you joy? How would your life be changed, if during this season of Lent, your dreams, laughter, and joy reflected the Lord?

Prayer for the day:
Lord, who knows my dreams, thank you for turning my sorrows into joy.
Amen.
