If you think about it Lent and golf have a lot in common. I played my first round of the year on Monday and generally played pretty crummy. However, I hit quite a few really good shots and in fact, finished my round strong with several consecutive pars.
On Ash Wednesday I made my Lenten vows to give up Facebook, pray the rosary more often, and to be more consistent with my faith. For seven days I was on fire!!! Unfortunately, for some reason I got off track. But the great thing is that we can hop back on the Lenten express anytime. So what if we’ve lost some of our motivation? We can still finish Lent strong, just like I finished my round strong on Monday.
I’m not to sure how to increase readers of these posts, but hopefully I’ll figure it out. In the meantime, I’ll continue to write them, because I really enjoy it and I think blogs, Facebook, and other social media outlets are a tremendous way to spread the Gospel.
