Season of Lent

This is the first time i’m actually thankful for the season of Lent. In
the past i will go like… oh… it’s LENT, with sort of a serious tone
and oh… it’s fasting and prayer season.

But somehow this year, maybe i’m more aware of its significance or just
tired of clutter in my life and just glad for a time to refocus and
even fast from things that have become addictions (in my case, sweets
in particular gummies!) or complusive behaviours in my life (like
stress and hard work!). It sounds superficial to fast from sweets but
each time i am drawn towards the little packet of gummies in my
bag(right now, Haribo cola sweets) i am reminded to think of praying
and drawing away.

It’s really strange how it all works out. And trust me, i’m seriously
addicted to these things. It’s almost complusive behaviour. Don’t
believe me, ask James.

Anyways… i’m thankful to take time out to reflect and slow down and pray and just be humble and in awe of God.

Today’s passage from Eccl 5 – Go near to listen rather than to speak/offer the sacrifice of fools. 

(Erm… while writing this entry, i actually went to search for Haribo
online…. drool………….. temptation island……………. you
must check it out! AHHH!!)
