Jesus took 40 days to prepare himself to do what he was born to do.
Christians hold up 40 days prior to Easter each year to prepare ourselves to experience Easter in the very best possible way.
Rather than giving something(s) up for Lent this year, consider taking something on.
Consider taking on a specific act of generosity each day during Lent this year.
You could have the very best Easter ever.
"What if Lent could be more than just giving stuff up?
What if it could remind us that we're here; alive and able to make a generous difference to the world around us?
Join 75,000 people doing Lent generously this year, with 40 days, 40 brand new reflections and 40 acts of generosity.
Sign up to receive #40acts emails from February 10th until March 24th 2016 and receive a daily dose of generosity during Lent.
With blogs written by Rev. Kate Bottley ( Gogglebox, The Dancing Vicar), Bridget Plass, Dan Usher (Share the Miracle), Emma Scrivener (A New Name) Steve Legg ( Sorted Men's Magazine), Fiona Morrison ( Tearfund), Graham Miller (London City Mission) and many more.
