        Here are some suggestions for your Lenten Fast —

                          In the words of Pope Francis

  • Fast from hurting words and say kind words.
  • Fast from sadness and be filled with gratitude.
  • Fast from anger and be filled with patience.
  • Fast from pessimism and be filled with hope.
  • Fast from worries and have trust in God.
  • Fast from complaints and contemplate simplicity.
  • Fast from pressures and be prayerful.
  • Fast from bitterness and fill your heart with joy.
  • Fast from selfishness and be compassionate to others.
  • Fast from grudges and be reconciled.
  • Fast from words and be silent so you can listen.

Which of these can YOU fast from so as to lift the spirits of those around YOU?

YOU MUST NOT CONFUSE JESUS’ COMMAND TO LOVE WITH YOUR DESIRE TO PLEASE!
