And so it begins......

Just over twenty-four hours into Lent, I am beginning to feel the burn, as they say. That one little thing (that comes in twelve-ounce packages) that would have made a great meal oh so much better. Boy was I tempted......
So now we enter into our Lenten fast. Along with many other reasons, we are also encouraged to fast by my friend Shawn Carney and his 40 Days for Life campaign. There is so much that could be said about acts of self denial in this world, and how they just aren't popular anymore. Suffice it to say, if it was good enough for Our Lord, it's good enough for me. That, and He commanded it!
I wish everybody a blessed Lent so that you can have a truly holy Pasch!
