Today is Ash Wednesday. Today we begin a journey with Christ as He prepares for His journey to the cross.
Some people use Lent to give up something. Maybe chocolate or coffee or a certain TV show. That works! When you are craving whatever it is that you gave up, you can pray for strength and feel God’s peace.
But there is another option! For those of us who struggle to give up something, maybe we can take on something. Think about a spiritual discipline that you want to improve. Maybe pray more, read the scripture more, meditate on God’s word and blessings more. Attend church more. There are lots of options.
Either way, use this season to get to know God more!
