Praying the Psalms in Lent

Praying the Psalms in Lent.

Throughout the season of Lent, spend some time with the Psalms. Pray the Psalms. They are the Bible’s prayer book. Speak out loud the Psalm assigned for the Day. Make it your prayer to God and your Praise to God. Use these prayers that the Holy Spirit has given us to prepare your heart and mind for Easter celebration of the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus from the dead.
