How to "do" Lent


So many people are talking about what they are giving up for Lent and when I came across this "cartoon" I felt like I just had to share it.  As I was sitting in silence today, the song, "I Shall Not Want" started singing in my head (don't ask, I'm weird) and the powerful words spoke to my fears today.  

"I Shall Not Want" written and performed by Audrey Assad (2013)

From the love of my own comfort
From the fear of having nothing
From a life of worldly passions
Deliver me O God

From the need to be understood
From the need to be accepted
From the fear of being lonely
Deliver me O God
Deliver me O God

And I shall not want, I shall not want

when I taste Your goodness I shall not want
when I taste Your goodness I shall not want

From the fear of serving others
From the fear of death or trial
From the fear of humility
Deliver me O God

Deliver me O God
