Today is the second day of Lent; it is time for us to challenge ourselves into the true meaning of Lent. In the gospel Jesus teaches how arduous the path to follow His teachings is; one must deny himself and take up his cross daily. What do you choose to give up for Lent in order to truly follow Jesus? This might seem discouraging at first, but do not forget that Jesus has promised us that if you follow His commandments you will live in Him, as He lives in you.

Difficult roads lead to beautiful destinations. Delayed gratification makes your prize so much more valuable. God bless you!
