We who call ourselves Christians are invited to give up something during the season of Lent. Where is the sacrifice if I get to choose what I am going to give up? Am I not still in control? The real sacrifice comes when giving something up is forced on me by life. Then God is in control and I can decide only how I am going to respond. Am I going to respond with joy or with dread?
Let go of the need to give up and let God use you as God will.
