The Lenten season is a time of pause and reflection. It is a time to join with the worldwide church; it is a time to commune with Jesus in the wilderness. The season begins with Ash Wednesday, February 22nd. This is the day when believers across the globe gather to receive ashes on their foreheads to remind us that we are all dust.

Each year for Lent I decide to give up something and take in something, both are in effort to walk closer with Jesus. This year I am abandoning worry and I am adding the book "Enduring Grace-Seven Women Mystics" to my daily reading. The women mystics of the 13th century led the way in spiritual fervor and wrote of their journey with Christ in terms of love. Join me here to read the lives and Jesus love stories of these incredible women.
