Many of us quietly fear we are unworthy of God's love for who we "really" are. Pastor Kris and Shelley discuss gifts of emptiness as a place of accepting God's love in times of darkest mystery. The scripture highlights that it is within Jesus's forsaken cry from the cross that we find the gift of emptiness: not that Jesus found God but God found Jesus, remaking the story of humankind. Lenten emptying gives space for God, who loves us beyond our wildest imagination, to find us.
