LENT in PLAIN SIGHT:
A Devotion Through Ten Objects
PCUSA Lenten Devotions by Jill J. Duffield
DUST
When you encounter dust this week, as you walk, in the wind, or on a path in the park, remember that you are dust, given life and breath by God, and give thanks for the day, the hour, the moment.
Remember that you are part of Christ’s body, sharing the bread of life with everyone you meet.
Watch for crosses wherever you go this week. Think about what message they send about the gospel of Jesus, and whether that aligns with your beliefs about the cross.
Remember that God loves you and that there is nothing about you that is unknown by God. Remember that all your concerns are God’s concerns.
Let the shoes you wear this week remind you of the mission Christ is calling you to.
OIL
This week, pour a bit of oil in a glass or glass vase or bowl. As you move through the week, look at it or touch it and remember the many ways you respond to God’s call to your live and how God always anoints or makes sure you have the gifts you need.
