Baby it is cold outside. The low this morning is 15 degrees and the windchill is at zero. Pretty darn cold for us Texans.
My thoughts are already turning to Lent coming up this month. There are many things in our lives that limit us and how we think or what we do. We cannot seem to get beyond the NO NOT ME. Many folks think of fasting from special food or pleasures during lent. Others believe perhaps it is a time to give up on negative thinking. My mom always taught us to sacrifice that which is dear but to ADD something new to our lives. This was the time to bring in a new habit and make it work through prayerful obedience over the Lenten season.
No matter how you choose to approach Lent think about it now. Keep your eyes to His light striving to give to those around you, keeping the peace and turning your negative words and thinking to positive thoughts. Be constructive with your direction. This will prepare you mentally and spiritually to grow from the old to the new.
This type painting is definitely new for me! Too cold in my studio...will continue working on smaller things on my little easel in the den.
God Bless...
