In case it’s not clear to anyone, I love Jesus with all my heart. Jesus is the reason I’m alive, the reason for any hope I have in this life and life in Heaven. I pray that everything I say and do is for His honor and glory. I fail a lot due to being a sinful, broken human — in constant need of His mercy and grace.

"That thou appear not to men to fast, but to thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret, will repay thee." Matthew 6:18 Keep your Lenten resolutions PRIVATE and between you & God (and your spouse as necessary).

@catholicmouse May God be with you and give you all the graces you need. Please allow yourself to feast during the Easter octave when you celebrate His Resurrection. God bless you!

Here in Australia, Lent has begun. Some people are open on how they are going to keep it, others say you shouldn't say so. I myself will try to keep it the best way I can, the old way if possible. I also need to get closer to Christ. I must also have temperance after Lent ends.

@Catholicizm1 The old way if I can. No food on Ash Wednesday or Good Friday. No meat, eggs or diary. Having one meal a day after 3:00 pm will be the challenge. I don't know if I can do that. Squeak! Squeak!

We live in the most comfortable and affluent time in all of human history. In the west most of us can jump from a perfect 72° home into a perfect 72° degree car to a perfect 72° degree workplace. If anything we should give up twice as much.

Look who’s back with some Lenten advice! “Please, stop giving things up for Lent. The reality is that for most people, giving up something for Lent is a fairly shallow practice.”

@Kc8wzm That’s why it’s so hard for me to completely go offline. I want a break so badly but feel bad for abandoning my friends here… Please please know of my prayers for you. I ache so much for those who are truly alone.

For those giving up social media for Lent. Please make sure that you have a way to reach those who rely on social media for their interaction with the world. Especially those who are homebound or have disabilities.

I keep meaning to ask my sponsor, but what exactly is the scheduled "Stations of the Cross" on church calenders? Like, I know of the stations of the cross. But what exactly is this scheduled time?

Pre-Lent anxiety is hitting hard 😰😰😰 doesn’t help hearing about the super intense fasting that some are doing.

"Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven." But "let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds & glorify your Father in heaven." Our intention is key.

@Catholicizm1 YAY HUNGER PAINS!!!!! May I learn to prefer fasting to feasting. I’m on Earth to fast and do penance not to enjoy food. I’m dreading this so much. But I know I have to prove to Jesus that I love Him above all else. THEN, I can enjoy the amazing Paschal feast.

@MargoCatholic You can’t properly enjoy the feast if you don’t learn to fast. Start small. You’ll learn to love it.

I’m signing off here. Focus on CHRIST this Lent. Not internet drama. Not amusements. Fast, pray, give alms, serve others. Do it all for Christ and His glory. Forget about all else. Everything else is a distraction from Christ. Know of my daily prayers for every intention that has been or will be posted. God bless 💜

@TheBabylonBee This year for Lent, I'm going to give up stealing other people's babies. Unless I see a REALLY cute one. Then all bets are off.

FYI any Catholic priest will readily tell you that you shouldn't give up something sinful for Lent You should cut out sinful things as a matter of basic Christian growth Lent is for detaching from good things so you can get better at detachment It's great, you should try it
