Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. It is time to make those Lenten Resolutions - doing something for God. You can do something positive - for example saying more prayers or reading the Bible daily or trying to be nicer to people, or you can give something up like a favorite goody or a bad habit you might have. Or you may choose to do something positive and give up something as well. Lent is meant to be a time of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It is a time to make ourselves better, to become new people for the Easter experience.
I wish you all a very blessed Lent.
