When the Angle of death was to pass over the homes of non Jews in the middle of the night and kill every first born of man and beast. So the last meal was to be rushed and nothing left. Then they could go fast away and eat what they could find or that God would provide. So that is one of the reasons it still exists.<br /><br />We don't always have to give up something, we could do more instead. Like looking after the sick, old and young.

Giving alms and doing something positive, for example, as opposed to just giving something up, is a favourite Lentern theme of Father Boniface. However, in this instance I was just making a link between reflection, repentance and prayer and the "gving up something for Lent" that many people will still do at this time of year. If one does go through some reflection, repentance and prayer, I would have thought that there would, at least for most of us, be one aspect of our lives we would want to change and at at least one vice or sin that we woud want to stop doing completely.Life In Another Townhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00654247200741913123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13274559.post-32087987288723399592012-02-23T11:01:42.886+00:002012-02-23T11:01:42.886+00:00Sort of agree with giving up something for Lent bu...Sort of agree with giving up something for Lent but would argue its only worth it if you combine it with something for others - give up chocolate/alcohol and put the money into a good cause for eg - otherwise you are just doing your body a favour by giving up.fiona steelenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13274559.post-52303274112993698192012-02-22T01:37:30.391+00:002012-02-22T01:37:30.391+00:00Update:
