You don’t HAVE to give something up, but you should be planning to do something to help you grow spiritually—something that takes some
effort and discipline.
Dedicating extra time to spiritual reading and/or prayer
may be the place to start.
One purpose of Lent is to grow spiritually so doing a little more
with intention can help develop your spiritual muscles.
Another thing to do is clean your spiritual glasses. Is there
anything in your life that distracts you from your spiritual pursuits? That might
be something to give up or do less of during your Lenten practice.
We Behold the Christ in You!
John
