In Sadness and in Gladness

Entering the time of Lent
mindful of his sacrifice
the walk of our Lord
after the transfiguration

In his purposefulness,
his eyes set on Jerusalem
the passion, the trials
his sacrifice in our place

Mindful of the rest
the story of our salvation
the price he paid
but what we received
at the end of the story

Being present,
in this time of choosing
in whom we will follow
the way of the world
or the way of the cross
as was chosen by our savior
