I enjoyed this while preparing crockpot chili this morning. If God thinks it’s a good idea, I’m willing to try it and it’ll be my first time. As for me, I think I’ll also cut out fast food completely even though it’s rare and focus on making more home cooked meals for the family. The app hallow has been helping me learn the rosary and pray in the car and contemplate the mysteries while the kids are asleep in the car.

Thank you for this. For the past fifteen years at least I have always felt a sense of disappointment in myself every Easter as I would have failed every resolution that was made on Ash Wednesday

My resolutions were always around food and most years when I barely made it through a few days

Thank you for this grace filled perspective and encouragement to start again

Thank you so much for sharing that, Ann! It's good to know you found encouragement here. I will be praying for you to have a blessed Lent!

I also see how it could become a crazy New Year’s resolutions reset 2.0 and could lead to overwhelm instead of drawing near to God 😅
