Time flies when you're not having a very hard Lent.

| just kidding. |
My food sacrifices this year were WAY easier than anticipated. In fact, I thought giving up sugar in my coffee would never be possible, but turns out I actually like it that way now.

| If only I could get rid of the cream... |
And I eat enough sweet treats on Sundays and Holy Days to carry me over all the rest of Lent.
My Lenten reading and prayer time obligations were definitely not met each day and that's why I need to take Holy Week seriously. It's never too late to give it all to God, right?
I mean, even the thief on the cross with Jesus changed his life at the last hour and went to Paradise.
Sooooo, I need to turn off this blog until Easter and focus on Holy Week liturgies and Lenten sacrifices. Martin Family Moments will be buried with the Alleluias. See you on the flip side!
Have a peaceful, blessed Holy Week and a joyous Easter, my friend... Enjoy those kiddos! : )
ReplyDeleteI gave up sugar in my coffee too! I thought I would hate coffee but I'm still drinking 2-3 cups a day so...not so bad. I don't think I'm going to go back to putting sugar in it after Lent. I will never give up cream!
ReplyDeleteThis Lent I gave up lighting candles (I'm addicted) and it's actually been kind of hard! But I also vowed to do something religion related with Joe each day and that has been a big fat failure! :-( We're going to be moving out of our apartment this week so I don't think we'll have a very fruitful Holy Week either. There's always next year!
ReplyDeleteHope you and your family have a wonderful Holy Week and Easter! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed Holy Week!
