"I never aspired to write a book for the Lenten season. I have always been so much more attracted to the softness of the season of Advent. In fact, I may have been heard to say, 'I will never write a book about Lent.' But here I am, writing a book for Lent, this season of wandering in the wilderness."
-Introduction to Walking in the Wilderness: Seeking God During Lent
As I was considering my Lenten discipline this year, I decided to read my book in a different way. I'm finding that way to be creating a collage each day. This practice is keeping me grounded, letting me hear these words as if they were spoken to me.
Each day's entry in Walking in the Wilderness includes a quote from an Upper Room author, a scripture reading, a reflection and prayer from me, and a word to carry in one's heart through the day. As I tear apart the pages of the book, different elements speak to me and arrange themselves on a page.
May the Holy One guide you through these days.
