Today is Ash Wednesday.
Today starts a 40 day period known as Lent.
What is Lent?
Lent is giving up. It is reclaiming.
It is dying and it is gaining.
It is freedom and bondage.
It is both rejoicing and sorrowing.
It is knowing Jesus. It is becoming like Jesus.
for Lent, I am giving up facebook.
I am choosing to pursue my relationships in more meaningful ways.
Through phone conversations.
Over coffee.
Through the tears and opening up of myself.
My whole self.
If you would like to learn more about Lent or check out some resources, click on Ann's blog.
and perhaps, will you fast this season?
seek to draw closer to God?
and once again discover how very precious, and loved, you are.
