But then reading doesn't draw me closer to him either. Maybe it will when I'm older. Who knows.<BR/><BR/>I grow towards christ in my own way. Like you do in your devotions. I just talk to him and make conversation.Irish Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591797932746228092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768556477899824514.post-31572688151831652592009-02-25T16:44:00.000-05:002009-02-25T16:44:00.000-05:00don't give up things for lent.

I sometimes focus my mind on certain aspects of Christ saving me, like what is grace? How does it effect my everyday? etc. It sometimes focuses on the blood of Christ, or the healing. You get the picture. <BR/><BR/>I always grow closer to Jesus that way than if i gave up chocolate or sweets, or shopping etc. (Hee hee...shopping is one of my least favorite things to do, so why did I even think to write it down?) <BR/><BR/>What about you? Do you find giving up something helps you to grow closer to Christ?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00922231371255666169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768556477899824514.post-51610332515934301272009-02-25T16:34:00.000-05:002009-02-25T16:34:00.000-05:00do you give anything up for lent?do you give anything up for lent?Irish Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01591797932746228092noreply@blogger.com
