Lent is those fourty days before Easter when we take our soul to a retreat.
To retreat is to stand back, reflect on our lives, to ask:
What have I been doing with my life?
What has God been teaching me?
Where have I succeeded in living God's way?
Where have I failed?
What do I need to confess to God, or to change?
Joyce Hugget.
The good thing about all this is that God is faithfull. He is slow to anger and does not keep a record of all the wrong we do. And for that, I just want to THANK YOU, LORD:
Thank you for loving me,
Thank you for protecting me,
Thank you for forgiving me,
Thank you for having faith in me,
Thank you for the hope I have in you,
Thank you for making me,
Thank you for Your Son, Jesus
Thank you for being You.
Thank you for your everlasting presence.
THANK YOU, LORD.
