I hope to "do Lent" well; of course, to do it well, you sort of have to do it poorly. If we are to grow in our relationship with God, we need to be more humble, and to be more humble, it helps if we mess up. If we keep to all our resolutions perfectly, we might become a bit puffed up, and that wouldn't be good, would it? Well, I never find myself short of humiliations, so I am not too worried about that.
In any case, I will be following my tradition of the last few years and closing comments for the duration of Lent. That is a sacrifice for me, as I truly appreciate your comments; but as they usually make me feel so good about myself, it is all the more fitting that I give them up for this time. If you have a question on something, please do feel free to email me.
May your Lent be fruitful, that your Easter may be all the more joyful!
Peace, dear friend! Annita +JMJ+
ReplyDeleteWhere did you find that Lenten calendar (or is that a homemade one?)... I love it! And your bit about humiliation, which I'm going to strive for during Lent as well.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteThe calender I painted last year. I made it so that the movable feasts are, well, movable, and so I can use it every year.
