Fourth Sunday of Lent

Three weeks of Lent gone and the chocolate withdrawal symptoms are really kicking in now. After Easter, I never want to see another plain biscuit as long as I live.
This week I have been walking round the house saying to myself,
'I should never have given up chocolate. I'll never do that again.
I'll pick something else next year. Something easier.'


I even considered cheating.

Then I saw this quote at Holy Cards for your Inspiration:

"Let us go to the foot of the Cross,
and there complain....if we have the
courage."

Saint Madeleine Sophie Barat




Sort of puts it into perspective, doesn't it?
