WEEK 1 INTRO
The season of Lent always begins on Ash Wednesday. During this shortened week of Lent, we will reflect on the story of Jesus’ encounter with a blind beggar (or two beggars, according to Matthew). The attitude of this beggar demonstrates the perspective that we hope each of us has as we enter the season of Lent: desperate and hungry for what Jesus has to offer us. As we seek Jesus, we can be comforted that He takes the time to notice us and our needs.
Scriptures for this week:
Matthew 20:29-34, Mark 10:46-52, Luke 18:35-43
