Dear Viewers,
Micah 6:8 "you have been told, O Man, what is good, and what the Lord requires of you; Only to do the right and to love goodness, and to walk humbly with your God." This month of March begins our lenten journey for forty days and forty nights. Lent means springtime and new growth. It is another beginning of fasting, almsgiving, and prayer. |

How do we begin a prayer life? What does it mean to develop a prayer life? Let's consider the prayer form of L I F E. The letter L stands for
Love of the Lord. Read the Book of Psalms. I stands for invite the Lord into your heart and intercessory
prayers. F stands for forgiveness. Pray the Our Father the prayer given to us by Jesus.
E stands for the Eucharist which means thanksgiving and everlasting life. John 10:10 states, "I came so that
you will have life and have it more abundantly."
This is the beginning of prayer. Start with 5-10 minutes daily. Have a fruitful lent and a prayerful journey. Happy Spring.
