What to Give Up: A Lenten Reflection - February 23, 2025

Give up complaining -- focus on gratitude

Give up pessimism -- become an optimist

Give up harsh judgements -- think kindly thoughts.

Give up worry -- trust divine providence

Give up discouragement -- be full of hope

Give up bitterness -- turn to forgiveness

Give up hatred -- return good for evil

Give up negativism -- be positive

Give up anger -- be more patient

Give up pettiness -- become mature

Give up Gloom -- enjoy the beauty that is all around you

Give up jealousy -- pray for trust

Give up gossiping -- control your tongue

Give up sin -- turn to virtue

Give up giving up -- hang in there!

Therefore, do not throw away your confidence; it will have great recompense. You need endurance to do the will of God and recieve what He has promised." - Hebrews 10:35-36
