Lent is a time of reflection and prayer. Lent is 40 days that we spend thinking of the sacrifice of Jesus, and preparing ourselves, as we do every year, for the mystery of Easter. If we were perfect we would not need New Year's Resolutions every year or to make this commitment to prepare for Easter in this way. But we all fall short. In God there is always hope, not in perfection, but growing closer to Him, using His gifts in the world which He made.
