Day Seven Lent Meditation: Humility in The Wilderness, A 40-Day Spring Prayer

SOULjourner,
As we journey through the wilderness this Lent, let's reflect on the sacred nature of wild places in both the Torah + New Testament.
The wilderness, or "midbar" in Hebrew, was not just a place of challenge but also of divine revelation + transformation.
It was in the wilderness that the Israelites received the Torah, and where Yeshua/Jesus was tested and prepared for His ministry.
The concept of humility, central to our Lenten journey, is beautifully captured in the Hebrew word "anavah."
This term denotes not merely an outward expression, but an inward disposition acknowledging dependence on God.
In Greek, "tapeinophrosyne" conveys a similar sense of a sobering, honest assessment of self in light of submission to God's grace + goodness.
As we walk this wilderness path, may we cultivate the "anavah" spirit, recognizing that in our holy appraisal of the Beloved's nature + nurture, we open ourselves to divine guidance and transformation.
A Prayer - Humility in The Wilderness
This Lenten season...
Grant us the grace of "anavah," O Lord,
To see ourselves honestly in Your Light,
And to be shaped by Your grace, goodness, and guidance,
While in the wild and wisdom of change,
May we offer hospitality in our humble dependence upon You.
Amen + Asé
Take time to journal or linger with your thoughts, feelings, and insights as you explore your heart.
