God’s Reset
Conspiracy theorists have been talking about a “reset.” [1]
Lent is not that kind of reset of conspiracy theorists, but a grace that God gives us.
Out of love for us, God gives us a chance to reset our lives in the areas where our relationships with God, with others and with ourselves are not what they should be.
While in the desert, Jesus “was among wild beasts and the angels ministered to him.” By his incarnation, passion, crucifixion and resurrection, Jesus restored the original harmony that God created. That was his “reset.”
Thanks to his reset, we are now living in “the time of fulfillment.” With Jesus, “the kingdom of God is at hand.”
May this season of God’s grace reset in us what God had created.
