Lenten Fast - Week Six

Suggested Fast – Noise
As we enter into Holy Week, a time when we are especially aware of the price paid for our sin, we thought that would be appropriate for us to fast from noise.

Much of this world’s noise is thrust upon us, but much else is self inflicted. We’d like to suggest that you find time throughout the week for periods of silence, fasting from external noise and from speaking. On Friday, to the degree that your commitments allow, spend the day in silence. Together, we will break that silence as we come together for our Good Friday service.

Prayer
Lord, I talk too much. It’s Your turn. Speak, for Your servant is listening.

Scripture
Ecclesiastes 3:7; Psalm 46:10
