My first Lent observance

This year I have decided I am going to observe Lent. I have never done this before but thought it was meant for me to do. I have been reading up on it alot. It is very interesting. I believe it would be great for me! The hard part was trying to decide what to sacrifice for it? I have decided my biggest thing to give up would be fast food. Not only will it help me financial and with my weight it is also something I want to prove to myself. I need to lose weight so bad. I want to prove to myself that food isn't a crutch for myself. At the same time I am wanting to try to develop more of a relationship with God. I have read that you should make sure to pray everyday during Lent so that is what I am going to do. This is going to be quite the battle but I hope that after Easter I write a blog talking about how well I am doing and how I achieved something I wasn't sure I could! God is the foundation of all life! I need to work on that fixing that foundation! Wish me luck! :-)God Bless!
