Lenten Reflection

IMG_3369A friend of mine told me she gave up road rage for Lent.  I really like that.

Here’s something from our church bulletin.

Fast from pessimism; feast on optimism.

Fast from criticism, feast on praise.

Fast from bitterness, feast on forgiveness.

Fast from idle gossip; feast on purposeful silence.

Fast from selfishness, feast on service.

Fast from fear; feast on faith.

Fast from anger; feast on patience.

Fast from discontent; feast on gratitude.
