Produktbeschreibung
Better than giving up chocolate. For centuries, Lent-the 40 days before Easter-has been a time when Christians focus their minds on the great gift of salvation through Jesus' death and resurrection. For several years, Linda Hanstra intended to do just that. She gave up pleasures and vices. She took on holy and healthy habits instead. But those changes didn't always change her focus. Despite her best intentions, Jesus' presence during Lent was, at times, elusive. "Life got in the way, and I would realize days or weeks had gone by and all I had thought about was how many days until I could have chocolate again, and who was coming for Easter dinner...And I'd promise to do better next year." With that struggle in mind, she penned these meditations. Finding simple reminders throughout her day, she's become more mindful of Jesus' presence on her daily journey. She invites you to join her through forty personal reflections, as she connects the dots between the "Little Things" in our everyday, ordinary lives and the holy presence of our Lord and Savior. Are you yearning for a Lenten experience more meaningful than giving up chocolate? Do you long for a daily connection with your Savior? If so, this book is for you.
