Today is Ash Wednesday.
To some this is a time to reflect and pray.
To some, this is time to fast or give something up.
To me? Well, I don’t know.
If I give up a treat or food, it is nothing I haven’t done before to lose weight.
If I try to pray each day, it is nothing I am not doing every day already. It is.just that I think about it being Lent and not about the prayers
If I decide to do something nice or be kind or be considerate, it would be sad that that is a sacrifice for me.
I decided to meet Jesus.
Lent is the in between time. It is the time we lose Jesus the Man and see Jesus as God. It is a time of revelation.
I know as a child I knew about Jesus, but it is time to really know Him. I am old enough now to see what I missed all those years when I felt Jesus was an untouchable deity. So as I go through 40 days of Lent, I will make my own reflection on Jesus. This will be my admission that I know nothing about what I know.
