I love these ideas. Good on you! I've ...Oh YES! I love these ideas. Good on you! I've heard of 40 acts but never done it, so you've inspired me to Google it and try it. I love the 40 bags idea too but we're away the first few days of Lent, and I also worry that I wouldn't have time each day but then again I guess that's part of the sacrifice :) (Maybe next year?!) I look forward to seeing your pics and hearing your updates, whenever you're able to provide them. Oh, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE your idea (Tom Stoppard's) of Lent being a compression of physical desires and an expansion of spiritual gain. Just brilliant. In fact, I guess that's really a motto for life, not just Lent. Jesus had far less than we do in many ways (possessions, money, sex life to name three!) and yet was the most spiritually fulfilled person who ever lived. Quite a challenge for us.Lucyhttp://desertmum1.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
