This past week we entered into the season of Lent (actually on Ash Wednesday), but we observed the first Sunday of Lent. During Lent, our community is focusing upon a series
entitled Psalms of Disorientation and Reorientation in which we are preparing e
ourselves for the new life that comes through the Resurrection of Jesus Christ
at Easter. We are reminding ourselves in what ways our lives are so often
disoriented from the ways of God and as we
engage these Psalms in Lent we seek to be open to being reoriented to the ways of
God.
The message for this first Sunday of Lent focused on Psalm 25: 1-10
Connect to Trusting God - Entering into Disorientation. In this message, we are invited to not fear times of disorientation. When we encounter disorientation, rather than praying to go back to our comfortable ways, our old orientations, may we trust God to a new place, a new orientation - in which we are reoriented. Reorientation only comes when we journey through disorientation.
