This year for Lent I have chosen to read a Proverb each day. Due to my busy schedule, I am being flexible about the actual time I complete this goal daily.
I appropriately began by reading Proverbs 1 this morning.
Proverbs 1:1 says,
"The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight; for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life..."
What a way to start things off! This verse begins with an explanation of what these proverbs are for, and finishes with giving us a challenge. I challenge you to add something (or as most people will take something away) during this season of Lent. I pray it will give you strength as you daily prepare for the Resurrection and the joy that comes with that story in the coming weeks.
