And so Lent begins...


I've tried to keep the beginning of Lent out of my mind, or just in a quiet humming stage. I didn't want to get excited or anxious about this time of year, I just wanted to seque in. Whatever. I'm done explaining. All I know is a friend gave me a small Lenten calendar, called My Daily Devotions. The date, what Gospel reading it is for the day is there, etc. But at the bottom it says: "My offering to God: I will anonymously do something kind for someone." Every time I glance at the calendar proped up on my desk my eyes are drawn to that simple offering to God.

I hope I can do it.
