Held Together Lent Scripture Meditation Guide

Downloadable digital copy of the Held Together Lent Guide.

This guide includes daily Scripture and Reflection Questions from Ash Wednesday through Easter Sunday. 

Our world can leave us quite scattered and uncertain, not knowing how to hold things together for whatever may come next. For many of us the illusion of being able to hold things together has been stripped away. For others, we have long known our powerlessness to hold it all together. So, what do we do when we cannot keep things together, from falling through the cracks, from slipping through our fingers? How do we hold on, let alone hold things together?
We recall God’s goodness and faithfulness through our lives and in the lives of others.
We receive the words of Scripture which tell us of God’s compassion, forgiveness, care, counsel, community, clarity, conviction, and power.
We re-learn what it is to be held and that we do not have to hold all things together.

As you journey towards Easter, the following guide will walk you through Scriptures and reflection questions that lead you in recalling, receiving, and re-learning.

My hope and prayer for you is that through these Scriptures and reflections, you will know and sense being held together within yourself, with others, and in our world. Even as you seek to hold things together, may you know Jesus’s secure hold of you and our world.
