Monday, March 29 ~ Thirty-fifth Day of Lent

Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, order your disciples to stop.” He answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the stones would shout out.” Luke 19:39-40

When Jesus came down from the Mount of Olives, His disciples were shouting for joy because of everything that they had witnessed.Jesus points out that even if no one said a word, that the rocks would scream for Him instead.This beautiful imagery of nature busting at the seams to praise Jesus serves as a wonderful reminder this Lent season that we too should be screaming for joy.It may be hard to see God all of the time, but remember that all of creation is joining in a beautiful chorus, and Jesus wants us to be the lead singers.During this season, listen to the Earth, listen carefully, and you will hear a beautiful conversation between creation and Creator…one that you are always invited to join.
