Day 69: Temptation

On By LindyIn photography1 Comment

Right after I gave up high fructose corn syrup for Lent, I came to work to find a huge bowl of gooey, chocolatey popcorn. One of the ladies at work has made it several times, and I have to admit that it’s pretty tasty. I’m sure there’s HFCS in it somewhere. I kind of felt like I was part of a Biggest Loser temptation challenge as I was smelling the chocolate and taking photos. I was the winner … this time.

Day 68: Symbol of Repentance

Although I’ve given up things for Lent before, yesterday was actually my first Ash Wednesday service. But I’m so glad I went, because I feel I can truly embrace the meaning of  it now. Giving up something I enjoy is the very least I can do to honor our Lord.
