Lent week 1

So we have started our Lent observance we have started with the things that we have given up. I wonder how it is going. Have we been tempted? Temptation is everywhere around us especially when we know that we are trying hard to give something up or not to do something over lent. When we rare trying our best there seems to be temptation around every corner or in every cupboard.

We can learn from the person of Jesus. Jesus went and prayed. He asked for help. We can do the same. We can ask the lord for help. Lent is a time when we renew our selves in the love and knowledge of Jesus. We also through self-denial and prayer and works of charity get to know ourselves better too. I find that the best thing if I am tempted to have some sweets or chocolate for example is not to have it in the house. Get rid of the temptation out of the house know what triggers us. Through the prayer and holy season of lent let us through the help of God and the community of the Church get closer to the person of Jesus.
