The drawing spaces are quite small, typically 3/4" - 1" wide, and in my post, the image will look a bit blurry, so please click on it for a better view. Each day's space is very simple - a word or phrase chosen from the daily scriptures or prayers in a Lenten meditation booklet, with a simple drawing or just a bit of color. I like the little icon spaces and the overall color and energy that emerged.

- In filling in the template, I moved back and forth unevenly from the bottom, saving the spaces in the cross for Ash Wednesday and Holy Week. So I'll list my words by row (row 1 is at the bottom) instead of by date.
- Cross: (starting from bottom) Ash Wed. We are dust. And God loves us.; you welcomed me; entrusting; (Holy Saturday) no words; (Left to right) Love one another; good; how very good; Hosanna; (Top of cross: Easter Sunday) Risen!
- Row 1: wilderness; connect us; bound by love; all things in common; our hope for healing
- Row 2: mighty to save; fellowship in Jesus; love one another; we are God's field; where 2 or 3 are gathered
- Row 3: humility; no words; if we satisfy others' needs, he will satisfy our needs; embrace and hold fast; he is our peace; revive my soul
- Row 4: we are created in God's image; do not fear; show mercy; no words; keep us; your will be done
- Row 5: in one spirit; serve one another; Christ the true bread; compassion; no words; that we may have life
- Row 6: no words; do not be afraid; varieties of gifts; glorify; grace to love; persevere
