LENT: BLUE LIKE JAZZ

First Sunday in Lent is tomorrow. 
A time of releasing things that bind us (the chains we choose
tired religion, apathy, stale worship, carved in stone thoughts and ideas
preconditioned responses and prejudices
worry, doubt, confusion, and  assumed identities....
and allowing them to drop at the foot of the Cross
and lift our eyes upward to the One hanging there, pouring His life's blood 
into the crucible of mercy for our redemption. 
And as we gaze into his wonderful face, all other distractions and loves grow dim. 
He is FOR us. 
Perfect Love in frail flesh. 
Our Saviour. During this sacred season, 
may we all turn our eyes upon Jesus and 
receive all the mercy 
and life 
he bought for us. 
FREEDOM!!
