Whatever your Lenten practice might be this year, I pray that you will look to God for comfort and assurance in this ever-precarious world we find ourselves in. I pray that you let the voices in this devotional move your heart, and to accept their invitation of joining in communion with all creation as we go forward. To the Glory of God.
