Lent, a season remembering Jesus Christ’s time spent in the wilderness as he contemplated the future direction of his life and ministry. What is your life, your purpose, perhaps your place in God’s world. What does your future hold….is it one of hope or uncertainty, eagerness or despair? In the few weeks leading up to Easter Day when Christians celebrate Jesus’ death and resurrection, can be for us and you too, a time to reflect on the place you are in in your life now and the direction you’re going.
