The Lenton Season began last Wednesday with what is known as 'Ash Wednesday'.
Lent is a time of soul preparation leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on the cross on Good Friday, and culminating with the triumph of His resurrection on Easter.
The best prayer I know for Lent [or anytime] was prayed by David in Psalm 139. I love the entire Psalm, but verses 23 and 24 are especially meaningful at this time of the year.
"Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
See if there is any offensive way in me,
and lead me in the way everlasting."
May God bless your week!
Psalm 139 is my favorite psalm. Like you said, the whole psalm is good.
