The Lent You Want and the Lent You Need

Christ on the Cross by Leon Bonnat (image in the public domain)

In my experience, God cares little for the Lent you want as evidenced by delivering the Lent you need. I’d intended to write a little more about that, including how little I’d “done” this Lent in the way of the three hallmarks of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. And then a little about the sick kids piling up in my living room this week and the cut on my pinky that sent me to the urgent care center.

But, instead, I’m going to direct you to another blog. Jenny Uebbing wrote on essentially the same topic, and I’m fairly certain it’s better written and more entertaining than what I would have offered.

A blessed Holy Week and a joyous Easter to you!
