Footsteps through Lent...

[Monday Mar 22nd]

As we start this new week, we only have a few weeks of Lent left. By this time next week, we will be in Holy week. Five days after that, we will be celebrating the risen Christ at the Easter Vigil.

For some of us, it may seem like a long while now that we have been in Lent. We might be getting weary and we might be getting tempted to sneakily turn back to that thing we gave up last month!

In any race, though, it's important to stick with it until the end.

Loving Father,

Help us not to grow tired of Lent, but to stick with it to the end.

Help us to become refreshed and renewed by this season, and help us to come to the joy of Easter changed for the better.

Amen.

Your challenge for today is to think about the rest of Lent. How are you going to make sure that you stick with it until the end??
