Thanksgiving aspects – Lenten Prayer* by Rev. Dr. LP Jones…


Wonderful images of thanksgiving invade while reading LP’s Lenten Prayer,* including:

  • special people – their embrace, welcoming eyes
  • exuberant melody of the songbirds
  • ability to laugh (including at ourselves!)
  • a new face in the crowd
  • hand in need of a touch
  • open arms waiting to receive us

WOW! As we experience this day, let’s be intentional. Consider taking time to sit and be surrounded by thanksgiving moments, many we miss because of our focus on “what’s next?”

May you enjoy a thanksgiving-filled day, strengthened and spurred by the Spirit!


* In the early 2010s, Rev. Dr. LP Jones prepared and shared a Holy Week prayer with the MWPC community as part of his weekly newsletter column [read or listen to the entire Lenten Prayer HERE]
