It's more correct to say that we need to do something extra for Lent. If you give up something, then you need to do something positive with whatever you sacrificed. For example, if you gave up chocolate, what will you do with the money that you would have spent on chocolate... If you gave up watching television, how will you use the former t.v. time to help others? To use Mother Teresa's example, "do something beautiful for God." Do that during Lent and it will become a year-long habit. |
