Just exactly how do you greet someone on a day like today? Hmmm...I haven't figured it out. So, today marks the beginning of Lent. This is a time when our family decides to fast from something, and we spend our devotional time reading about Christ's journey to Jerusalem. I find that this is a holiday that a great majority of non-denominational churches tend to forget, so I find it refreshing to be surrounded by people who are observing Lent right along with us.
I think it is funny that so many people know about MardiGras, but they have no idea why it exists or what people are preparing for.
I think for us the focus of this Lenten period will be: be still and know that I am God.
