Today is Fat Tuesday, or as it is know in some places, Mardi Gras. It was a day to feast before Ash Wednesday, which is the beginning of Lent, when it is tradition to fast as remember the suffering of our Lord. You can click here to learn more about Fat Tuesday and Ash Wednesday. Tomorrow is the beginning of Lent, I would strongly encourage each of you to fast from something between tomorrow and Easter as a way of remembering the suffering of our Lord. It can be food, but you can also fast from some activity in your life that you enjoy. This is done as an act of self discipline, but also as a way to remember.

Dear and Gentle Reader,
ReplyDeleteSince I last had the pleasure of visiting ye, I have had many thoughts upon ye and your work in this, our online community. Keep hold the faith and continue to run the race! We will praise God for what he has done through your ministry and I cherish your willing spirit and compassion.
Who knows but it may please God to make ye an instrument in His glorious work? In effecting an union among the labourers in His vineyard? That He may direct and bless you in all your steps is the prayer of my heart.
Your affectionate and obedient servant,
JW
