Lenten number (counting now that ABCs are completed): one. I’m using the word ‘single’. Yes, this sacred text is tough to honor in these times, but it also reminds us that we are beloved and love holds us through everything. Scripture: Matthew 6: 25-27. – “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?” And can any of you by worrying add a single hour to your span of life?
