from Lent Daily Reflections · host Eric Kouassi

“Return to Me with all your heart.” (Joel 2:12) Lent begins with a gentle invitation: come home. God does not call you back with fear but with tenderness. Today is not about proving anything—it is about turning your heart toward the One who has never stopped loving you.
