So often during the Lenten season, we are concerned with giving something up-chocolate, sweets. It's all good. However, what does it do for your spiritual journey in the long run? From my personal experience-not a whole lot.
This year, why not pick up something-compassion, hope, joy, and commitment- keep it up, and pass it on way past lent!
BTW, in order to add on these things, you do have to make room by giving up other things-judgment, despair...etc.
This is my approach this Lent season. But as we all know, we can do nothing alone. Won't you join me so that we strengthen each other?
Grace and Peace,
Loris
