Devotional – March 5, 2025

Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent.  If you are interested in some Lenten resources, you are welcome to browse this page:  https://mayfairheightsumc.org/resources-for-the-lenten-season/

There are, of course, countless other pages which are helpful in navigating this season.  Please take time for some reflection, some renewal, some resistance, and some service to others.  

This is from a writer named Laura Kelly Fanucci. @thismessygrace. 

She has a website: https://motheringspirit.com.  

It is becoming clearer and clearer

to me what I am called to do 

in such a time as this.

I am a parent.  I am called to care

for my children

and other people’s children.

I am a writer.  I am called to bear

beauty and truth and hope 

into the broken world.

I am a person of faith.

I am called to 

seek justice,

love mercy, and 

walk humbly with God.

I will stumble at this every day.

But I will not stop.

And I will not stay silent.

And I am so glad you are here with me.

Peace Be With You. – Paul
