Who needs LENT anyway?


If you would allow me to be honest with you...I wasn't really feeling lent this year. In fact I made up in my mind that I wasn't going to participate because I didn't want to do it for the wrong reasons. I didn't want to just "go through the motions" as I can so easily do at times.

But, the more I began to read and study, I knew that I need not allow this season to pass without taking the time to evaluate myself in light of God’s Word, to abandon sin, and to receive God’s forgiveness and strength. Which is exactly what "Lent" is.

So to answer the question I posted in the Subject line... "I need Lent" Do you?
