Sackcloth, Ashes, and Sacrifice: Following Daniel's Example during Lent
by Jeremy Roh on February 17th, 2023
The season of Lent offers us a unique opportunity to draw closer to God and to deepen our faith. One of the most powerful biblical examples of repentance and fasting can be found in the book of Daniel, in a passage that is particularly relevant during the Lenten season.
In Daniel 9:3-19, the prophet Daniel offers a powerful prayer of confession and repentance on behalf of his people. This passage offers us several important insights that are relevant to our observance of Lent. Firstly, it reminds us that we are all sinners in need of God's grace and forgiveness. Secondly, it emphasizes the importance of humility and submission before God. Thirdly, Daniel's fasting and use of sackcloth and ashes as signs of his repentance are powerful symbols of the self-denial and sacrifice that are an important part of the Lenten season. Finally, Daniel's prayer demonstrates the power of intercession and the importance of praying for others.
During Lent, we can reflect on our own sins, acknowledge our need for God's grace, and commit ourselves to following Christ more closely. By following Daniel's example of confession, repentance, fasting, and intercession, we can deepen our faith, draw closer to God, and prepare ourselves for the celebration of Christ's resurrection.

The Power of Humility
by Jeremy Roh on February 10th, 2023
Luke 18 is a powerful reminder of the truth that all goodness and holiness come from God alone, and that we should not put our trust in worldly wealth or material possessions. The rich young ruler approached Jesus and asked what he must do to inherit eternal life, hoping to receive a task or some way of measuring his abilities. However, Jesus told him that no one can earn salvation and that only God is truly good. Jesus reminded the rich young ruler that salvation does not come from good deeds unaccompanied by the love for God and that he needed a different starting point. Instead of adding one more rule to keep or a good deed to perform, the rich young ruler needed to submit humbly to the lordship of Christ. Read More
