Lent is about change. We think about what we want to quit doing, or what we want to do more or better, and we make promises, and try really hard. That’s good, and that’s as it should be. But know this: the Spirit of God is always working in you, on you, with you, to transform you. You are swimming with the current, in other words, and God knows where you’re going.
Do not keep trying to swim upstream -- it will tire you out and break you down. Do not swim too close to the shore -- you might run aground ind the shallows or hit the rock or the hidden submerged tree limb. Swim with the current in the deep water of God.
We are all swimmers in the river of life. But many never find the beauty of the current that is the Way of Jesus Christ. It is in His current that lives of prayer and seeking His Word will reap abundant benefits and eternal virtues. Swim with Him, dear ones, swim in the deep waters of His love!

Here you will find inspiration and encouragement for your prayer life. Prayer is the great gift of God to us. Make use of it often. It is supernatural lightning in the Book. It is the Holy Spirit partnering with you. It is how you touch the face of God.
