Halfway there

Yesterday was the half-way point between Ash Wednesday and Easter.

How's Lent going for you?

Have you given anything up?

Are you praying extra, giving alms, fasting?

Whether you are having a faith-filling Lent or you feel lost in the woods, take the time today to know that Easter is coming soon.

My own Lent---'eh. Somedays I feel focused and tuned in....others I'm not really paying attention as much as I think I should be. So at the half-way point, I know I can buckle down and really try to give it my best. Try to be charitable in my actions, gentle in my voice, humble in my thoughts.

No one says you have to a "perfect Lent"---better that we've tried and failed a few times than to not try at all.
