Lent

So my church is all about "rediscovering" ancient worship practices lately. I think it's pretty cool, but today it has me in a funk because it has taken away my beloved Starbucks. Lent started Wednesday and, as part of our foray into things liturgical, some of us at IBC are observing Lent this year. What little I've read about Lent so far says that it should be a time of sacrifice and repentance, remembering and sharing in the suffering of Jesus. So I figured, if I'm supposed to suffer here, might as well hit where it hurts. And I gave up coffee for Lent. So far, the headaches haven't been that bad, but the urges are very strong. I imagine this is what it feels like to quit smoking.
Clean for three days and counting...
