LJ2021 - Day 9 - Value

Welcome to the the Lenten Journey 2021:
Faith in a Post Pandemic World
by Fr. Vazken Movsesian


Day 9: Value
Are not five sparrows sold for two copper coins? And not one of them is forgotten before God. - Jesus (Luke 12)

People ascribe significance and value to things. We may forget something that we have labeled as insignificant or we may throw away something which we deem as having no value. Can you imagine a life where everything has significance and everything has value? The blue skies, the rocky mountains, the baby extending her hand to mommy, and even the ant marching across your front porch, are all creations of God. During Lent, we come to understand that everyone and everything is part of God's creation, and therefore, like us, everything is worthy of care, compassion and love.
