Lenten bits

Out with the bad
I hate what faithless people do; 
   I will have no part in it. 
The perverse of heart shall be far from me; 
   I will have nothing to do with what is evil.



In with the good
My eyes will be on the faithful in the land, 
   that they may dwell with me; 
the one whose walk is blameless 
   will minister to me.



Read Psalm 101 and get into the Lenten spirit

 Rend your heart
   and not your garments.
Return to the LORD your God,
   for he is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and abounding in love,
   and he relents from sending calamity.
Who knows? He may turn and relent
   and leave behind a blessing—
grain offerings and drink offerings
   for the LORD your God.

Joel 2:13-14
