This mini-movie explores the reasons for giving, fasting, and praying during the season of Lent. It can be used to explain to your congregation and visitors the reasons for observing these customs leading up to Easter. Great for Ash Wednesday or any service during the Lent season.
Lent is a time of reflection and repentance. A time to confess our sins and ask God to forgive, cleanse and help us. It’s a time to remember just how lost we are without Jesus and to dwell on all He endured to bring us grace.
Lent is a time of prayer, repentance, giving, and self-denial. As Jesus spent 40 days in the desert (Matthew 4:1-11), where He endured temptation by the devil, we follow his example during the season of lent where we deny self, pray, and focus on God.
Our lives should be lived as an offering to God. Every moment of every day should be a sacrifice of praise. God is worthy of our praise, no matter our circumstances, mood or schedule. It’s time we truly lived our lives the way they were meant to be lived…as an offering of worship to God.
This prayer of repentance—appropriate for Ash Wednesday, Lent or any season—acknowledges our guilt in seeking good apart from God and His grace in granting forgiveness in Christ and offering all-sufficient joy in Himself.
