Lent day 1

How fitting that Lent begins today with snow flurries dusting my trees, the scene calms me and convicts me. I was pondering giving up Face Book for 40 days...40 days of

refocusing,

restoring

resting

remaining

40 days of simplifying .....of yearning to let the jealous God of my soul have me , but will I surrender what I believe is a connection to the world?

He who loves the world is an enemy of God...hmmm.... are you speaking to me ?

Yes, Amen

I surrender to the process , yes I weakly submit myself ...

The tiny flakes remind me of manna, will God really provide all I need for 40 days?

Its a silly question I know , I should probably ask " Will I I receive from His hand what I don't fully understand to be enough ? Will I know Him and understand Him better? Who can know the mind of God? Will I step away in my heart from tethers made my mere hands and a lap top ? I want to be there , in that space where He is enough .

He is jealous for me , but am I for Him ?

Have mercy oh Lord.

i am but a small tree in a forrest i did not plant...
