Come as you are
The Old Testament has a list of sacrifices that needed to be repeated annually to ensure that people came before God to make things right with Him. The sacrifices were not enough because it’s impossible for the blood of animals to take away sin. That’s why God sent Jesus to deal with sin once and for all. We still sin, but we have a champion and peacemaker in Jesus.
Lent reminds us that Jesus’ sacrifice was once and for all, so please do not keep trying to feel you need to be good enough.
As Sidewalk Prophets wrote in a song called Come to the table: ‘So, come to the table. Come join the sinners who have been redeemed. Take your place beside the Saviour. Sit down and be set free. Come to the table.’
We are God’s precious children. Accept the offer and come to the table. You are welcome as you are.

About this Plan
“In these next days and weeks leading up to Easter, we’ll explore different scriptures. Each verse a thread in the tapestry of God’s great big redemption story – all culminating in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In this Easter season, let’s slow down and create a regular rhythm of remembrance together.” (Lent – Lucy Weil)
