Sin has put us in spiritual death. But God, in His great love, has made us alive with Christ. Grace is not a light word; it is a burden that carries the weight of all the sins of the world. Let us feel that burden today.

The Weight of Grace Morning Lent Prayer, Day 7 Introduction There is a moment in every honest person's Lent when the weight becomes real.

Just A Little Give And Take

based on 65 ratings

First Sunday in Lent: Temptation is often the enticement to compromise, to engage in just a bit of ’give and take.’ Jesus would have none of it when satan tempted Him. Nothing would deter Jesus from the Cross.

The art of the compromise – of give and take – is valued by many people. You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours. Watch the consummate politician on campaign trail – they live by give and take. Whey even a good football game starts out as a battle of give and take. One team will fight and ...read more

In the South Africa of apartheid, I suppose, nearly anything is possible. And so I do not expect that this story, improbable as it sounds, is untrue.
