Ok so I know this is gonna sound horrible, but every year I say I am gonna give something up for Lent... and I never do. I was raised Baptist and I'd never even heard of Lent until college. Not to say that some Baptist don't participate in this humbling act, but those around me just did not.
Back to the part about me saying I was going to and never did. This year I am gonna try things a little different. I have chosen the item/s that I am giving up and I'm gonna let Jesus hold me accountable! I always look for ways to reverently observe Easter. Last year I did a sermon series online and it was really great. But this year I wanna experience to Holy Spirit like never before. I want to be filled with him every time I think about what I'm giving up... which will mean I will have a lot of holy Spirit in me. :)
So pray for me as I try and let Jesus hold me accountable. I just pray that this be an experience that leaves me humbled and in awe of the sacrifice God made for us in Jesus.
