"'Let us pray in quiet remembrance of our need for redemption.' The whole Lenten journey really is that simple, that focused, that pointed. The next forty days offer an invitation to each one of us: an invitation to do three things: to be still, to pray, to repent (which means to turn ourselves around a bit). In short, Lent is an invitation to really believe the Good News of Jesus Christ. That’s really all there is to it.
First, can you hear God saying to the whole community–to all Israel, to all the church, to you and me–be still. Shush! Be quiet. It’s only forty days! Be still and know that I am your God."
