SEEING THE WORLD THROUGH A DIFFERENT LENT

Lent is ending.

Tomorrow our small church will forego Sunday school and instead have a pot luck breakfast. There will be food aplenty.

In the past, I have reveled in piling my plate high on Easter Sunday. This year I think will be different. I plan to restrict myself to fruit and choose one small food item to savor as a reward for adhering to my Lenten pledge.

This Lenten season has been especially good for me, coming at a time when I needed to make more room in my life for God.

I still have room to spare.
