Pig Out Day! Ready...Set...Go!

Fat Tuesday is hands down one of my favorite memories from my childhood. Every year my mama made a breakfast spread for dinner. I am certain it is the reason why I love breakfast for dinner any day of the week.

Today is the day we indulge. We indulge in hopes that we can make it through the fasting that can come with the Lenten season. It is an interesting concept right?

Can I really consume enough Mac and Cheese today that I don’t want or need it for the next 40 days? I don’t believe so. I have found I only make it through my Lenten fasts because I find a new found dependence on Christ. I only make it because I look to His strength and not mine.

So go ahead and indulge today, make memories with your kids, but remember when you wake on Wednesday and still want sugar and flour that it is God you call on to help you.

P.S. – I am not fasting from Mac and Cheese but it is not a bad idea.
