"What am I going to write about for this week’s reflection?” That is the question I have been asking myself this week as I shuttle the girls back and forth from school, activities, grocery stores, and other errands. Where does the time go? It gets so crazy that I forget to focus on my own spiritual needs. How easy it is to get caught up in the everyday daily grind! And then it hits me: when was the last I reflected on my relationship with God? I realize that I forget to focus on my relationship with God.
Lent provides for me the opportunity to reflect on my relationship with God. But I don’t want to just reflect on the relationship, I want to strengthen it and make it something more important in my life. I believe Lent provides the opportunity for me to create a stronger relationship with God.
This Lenten season I want to strengthen my relationship with God through prayer. I know that when I pray God is with me. I know that God listens. By focusing on prayer on a more consistent basis I hope to strengthen my relationship with God, as well as create a more personal and deeper relationship. The other great thing about prayer is that it is one of the easiest ways to build a relationship with God. I just need to make a concerted effort to pray! Beginning and ending my day in prayer will be my focus this Lenten season.
There is something special about the power of prayer. If you are like me, and your hectic life makes you lose sight of your relationship with God, I urge you to look at prayer. During this Lenten season I will make it my focus to work on my relationship with God through prayer.
God Bless.
