Saturday Lenten Devotional

Saturday, February 16, 2008

Read Psalm 51 as a prayer.
“Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.”

As you take your bath or shower today and you feel the waters rushing over you, keep the psalm in mind and in your heart: “Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.” Even your daily act of showering can be a time of meditation and prayer!

Read Matthew 4:1-4
Satan knows exactly how to tempt Jesus. The temptation story not only reveals the divinity of Jesus and his power to resist temptation, but it also invites us to ask the question, “what is a priority in my life?” Each day we must face temptations that seek to make their way to the top of our priority list. We choose work over a dinner around the table with family, we choose to blast an email to someone instead of facing them with our concern, or we choose a soccer game over worship on Sunday morning. Today, take a moment to examine your priorities in life. Where is your relationship with Christ in the midst of your list?

Prayer: O God, your glory is always to have mercy. Be gracious to all who have gone astray from your ways, and bring them again with penitent hearts and steadfast faith to embrace and hold fast the unchangeable truth of your Word, Jesus Christ your Son, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
(The Book of Common Prayer, U.S.A., 20th Century., ALT)
