Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, and as we begin our journey that will lead us to Holy Week, we consider the gifts that God has given to us to prepare us to receive the joy that he offers.

With yet another winter storm that has brought significant ice, we are providentially hindered from meeting together on this Quinquagesima Sunday, The Sunday before Lent. On this last Sunday before Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent, we are given the opportunity to consider the destination of Lent and what we are seeking through Lent.

Today we continue our preparation for the coming of Lenten Fast by considering what we are seeking in the Fast. Today we hear the parable of the Sower from St. Luke 8:4-15.

As we continue through the short season of Gesimatide, on this Sexagesima Sunday, we are given the opportunity to reflect upon the Apostle Paul's pastoral exhortation to the Corinthians, who had given the "Super Apostles" in Corinth a platform for their "gospel" that can neither heal or save. The point is not to condemn the Corinthians, but to examine our own hearts, to see whether we have given place to the false teachers of our own day. But how do we avoid the snares of the enemy that entangled the Corinthians? By hearing and cultivating the soil of our hearts to be receptive to the seed of the Word of God. Psalm 71; Isaiah 50:4-9; 2 Corinthians 11:19-31; Luke 8:4-15

Due to bad weather, we are not able to meet in-person on this Septuagesima Sunday, but we can still gather online to pray and to begin our preparations for the Lenten journey that will begin in less than 3 weeks. The service is the Order for Morning Prayer, 1928, with the Eucharistic Readings added in place of the New Testament Lesson.
