Lent is the opportune season to confront injustice as we contemplate Christ’s suffering together. Through this season of Lent, we will be going through a six-week journey of repentance, lament, worship, and healing. You are invited to join us as we go through A Just Passion A Six-Week Lenten Journey

Our Week Three invitation to HEALING is inspired by Sheila Wise Row’s excerpt originally in Healing Racial Trauma and Natasha Sistrunk Robinson’s excerpt originally in A Sojourner’s Truth.

Pray:

Take a moment to breathe, then pray with your breath. 

Inhale: Heal the brokenhearted.

Exhale: Bind up our wounds.

Meditate:

“And all of us, with unveiled faces, seeing the glory of the Lord as though reflected in a mirror, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another; for this comes from the Lord, the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians 3:18

Consider:

Soul repair begins as you prioritize your relationship with the Lord, not just to share what’s on your heart but also to hear what is on his. When you are attentive to the Lord your perspective becomes clearer, fear is reduced, and you’re less likely to get caught up in unnecessary drama.

Transparency is healing. Being transparent is the only way we can allow others to take the redemptive journey with us.

How do you make space to hear from God?

How does rest help you heal from injustice?

Who are the people with whom you are committed to transparency?

Practice:

Look into an actual mirror. As you see your face, name the ways you are made in God’s image. Experience God’s pleasure in you as his beloved. With the truth in place, name one way you’d like to become more like Christ.
