I heard
that Mobile celebrated Mardi Gras, but I had no idea how much fun it was! Having
the church doors open on Joe Cain Sunday was great outreach as people walked by
on their way to the parades. The time of
celebration is coming to an end on this Fat Tuesday and the tradition of Lent
begins with Ash Wednesday. Talk about
opposites, we go from a great big party into a time of quiet
introspection.
I invite
you to think about something in your life you would like to give up for good,
and use the days of Lent to break a bad habit.
Or do just the opposite, think of something you would like to add to
your life and use the days of Lent to form a new habit.
Whatever you do is between you and God, unless
you choose to share it with others. If
you're having trouble deciding what to do just be quiet and still and listen to
the Holy Spirit who will whisper to your heart.
Lent is a time of repentance, forgiveness and reconciliation. The time to begin is now. For those who take this journey, you will be
changed. I hope to see you along the
path.
