"Dear People of God: The first Christians observed with great devotion the days of our Lord`s passion and resurrection, and it became the custom of the Church to prepare for them by a season of penitence and fasting. This season of Lent provided a time in which converts to the faith were prepared for Holy Baptism. It was also a time when those who, because of notorious sins, had been separated from the body of the faithful were reconciled by penitence and forgiveness, and restored to the fellowship of the Church. Thereby, the whole congregation was put in mind of the message of pardon and absolution set forth in the Gospel of our Savior, and of the need which all Christians continually have to renew their repentance and faith.
I invite you, therefore, in the name of the Church, to the observance of a holy Lent, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer, fasting, and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God`s holy Word. And, to make a right beginning of repentance, and as a mark of our mortal nature, let us now kneel before the Lord, our maker and redeemer."
-- Book of Common Prayer (p. 264-5)

Just got a visit from this guy... yep, that`s my dad! We don`t see each other often, but it always reminds me how much we`re cut from the same cloth. Even though we don`t talk a lot, there`s always this sense that we just "get" each other.
It was nice to catch up today, and to show off where we`re at these days (which is a life that I love)!

Got a cool Carolina Chickadee stopping by to say "hi" this morning at the feeder and put on a little show.
Just got this bird feeder with the camera in it to get video of the birds... complete with bird recognition.
And I guess that says something about my age... but it really is pretty cool watching the birds come by and eat!
I can`t wait for Spring when the birds get REALLY active in our backyard.

A Message From Dan
What does it look like to live a Christian life? Like, TRULY live a Christian life? If I’m honest, I’m over the fake front of being a happy, blessed, and perfect person in order to impress others. Truth is, I’m a sinner who’s just trying to figure out how to do this without looking like an absolute fool. I think the Christian life is about admitting our brokenness, while raising our hand to say,”Here I am Lord! What would You have me do?” And that’s what this blog is all about… just a dude trying to do the best I can, and maybe hoping that you’re stumbling through the same journey. Maybe we can walk together.
