When's your favorite time of the year?

This is my favorite time of the year!

Fat Tuesday kicks off with excitement for the next 40 days.  It is also the beginning of my challenge.  Can I adhere to the promises I have made? Well, I made it this Lenten season! 

  • No meat on Fridays (I have to confess, I usually forget at least one Friday but I didn’t!).

  • An intentional effort to be especially kind when the situation is extremely frustrating.

  • Morning meditataion of two companion books with daily scripture readings the last 40 days.

Lenten season is always a humbling experience. This one has not disappointed me. I welcome it each year; I can re-set.

This past Palm Sunday, I was reminded that Easter is coming; and, so is the good weather! The season is yet another reason that I love this time of the year. I believe we all feel renewed with sunshine, warm weather, the flowers blooming and grass turning green. 

Most importantly, for me on this Maundy Thursday, I look forward to Sunday.  I recognize that we have to first endure Good Friday.  But, I look to Easter and I am thankful that Sunday we can celebrate and proclaim that “HE is Risen”, HE is Risen Indeed”.
