23-Feb-12: 1 John 1:3-10
3 we declare to you what we have seen and heard so that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 We are writing these things so that our joy may be complete.
5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true; 7 but if we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he who is faithful and just will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

I’d like to share my Lenten thing. I’m cutting my smoking from a pack a day to 3 cigarettes a day, until I don’t want them anymore. I’m cutting out my evening “toddys” of Vodka mixed with gingerale and lime. No booze at all. I am praying for strength to give up these costly vices. I know I don’t need them and God is my strength and salvation!!!
Wonderful, Wendy!! Thank you so much for sharing that with us! I pray the Lord to strengthen you, I pray the angels remind you each day, and I pray your offering is received in heaven with all joy! God bless you and keep you, Terri P.S. I am giving up procrastinating; I promised to accomplish at least one thing on my to-do list each day! (along with this Lenten Journey too)
