Lenten Examination
Fifth Week of Lent
—
This Lent, we invite you to join us in prayerful reflection. Each week, we will share emails filled with thoughtful intentions and guided prayers to help us prepare our hearts for Easter.
Core Principle: Home
—
Home is more than walls and a roof—it is the place where love dwells, where hearts are shaped, and where we find rest.
Yet, life can bring chaos into our homes—worries, schedules, distractions. But God desires our homes to be places of peace. He wants us to create spaces where His presence is welcome, where love is felt, and where we can breathe deeply in His grace.
This Lent, take a moment to invite God’s peace into your home. Pray over your spaces. Speak words of blessing over those who enter. Let your home reflect His love, a place of security and rest.
Reflect & Reset:
- Consider how your home feels.
- Is it a place of peace?
- What can you do to invite more of God’s presence into your space?
Scriptural Reflection
—
My people will live in peaceful country, in secure dwellings and quiet resting places.
Isaiah 32:18
Breath Prayer
—
As you inhale, pray:
Lord, bless this space.
As you exhale, pray:
Let it be filled with Your peace.
Pray this over your home each day.
