Daily Lenten Offering

Thus says the God who made the earth, the God who formed it to establish it—who is the Most High: “Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great and hidden things that you have not known.”

—Ephesians 4:11-13

Holy God, humble me with the truth that in every situation I do not know all there is. Only you perceive all things. I call to you, that I may learn something new today about myself and the world. Amen.

The journey of faith discovery is not an internal inquiry alone. We learn when we listen to the stories, wisdom, and questions of others. Ask a family member, a neighbor, or (if you’re brave) a stranger:

• Tell me about a time that you had to ask for help? Or a time when you failed (in a good way). What did you learn about yourself?
