Lent. It’s not about having 40 days of suffering without facebook, tumblr, soda, candy, etc. It’s not about giving up something that you would just jump right back into once the 40 days are over. Lent’s a time where you find what you want to fix about your attitude and stick with it. God gives us these 40 perfect days to train ourselves into how He wants us, how He designed us to be. So instead of giving up facebook, tumblr, soda, candy, etc for Lent this year, I’m going to be giving up name calling. I know that it’s not healthy for me to say bad names to my friends/not friends, so for these next 40 days, no more name calling.
There’s three key important things for lent: Fasting, Almsgiving, and Prayer.
Fasting: No pork for 40 days.
Almsgiving: Giving extra money that I have from the week into the building fund for SMG.
Prayer: Evening mass every Friday in addition to Sunday masses.
Well said, Mandy. I hope that you hold strong to what you’d like to give up, even after the 40 days are over. Love & miss you. :)
