We are in the third week of Lent. By now the cravings of the things we are abstaining from have calmed down, and it can be tempting to put on autopilot until Easter. But this is a good time to reflect on the promises we have made for the season of Lent, and it’s not too late to redouble our efforts on those promises.
Lent is an awesome time where we can truly reach within ourselves and focus on our spiritual development. We can almost go into a “secular hibernation” and give ourselves the time to examine our goals and dreams. This March is a perfect time for this examination, especially with the winter weather – it’s easy to cocoon away.
