Lent

Tomorrow starts Lent. I figure I might as well write to tell you "what I am giving up" (i.e. doing differently). Not because of my pride, because I really don't think they are anything amazing. However along the journey of life, I have found that I do better at these things when I am held accountable.

Lent "Changes"-
1. I will get up earlier (my goal is 1 hr) and spend that time with God.
2. I will give up the distractions of my phone applications (that are not normal phone functions) during work times.
3. I will post everyday 5 things (people/events/etc) I am thankful for (see past posts). (As a reminder of God's endless blessings.)

I think these are all sacrifices, but all doable items that will help me to not only grow closer to God, but also allow me to focus more on my relationships. Growing closer to God is really what this "season" is about.

I will try to update on how I am doing with the Lent Changes.

So, what are you "giving up" for Lent? Why?
