Lenten meditations: The feet of Jesus

Tonight we started our Lenten series on the feet of Jesus. Each week I'll give a meditation based on a passage in the scriptures about the feet of Jesus. Then we break into small groups for discussion and close in the large group.

Tonight the scripture passage was Isaiah 52:7, "How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news."

We thought about our feet, what beautiful creations they are. We imagined Jesus' feet traveling the roads of Galilee and Judea. We thought about how our feet bring good news to others. And we pondered what "good news" is to people today.

We had about 22 people for the program and it was a lively group. Next week the scripture passage will be the story of the leper who was healed by Jesus and fell at his feet, and we'll think about gratitude.
