March 5th marks Ash Wednesday and the beginning of the Lenten season, a time when we remember Jesus spent 40 days in the desert fasting and resisting temptation by observing the three disciplines of Prayer, Fasting and Almsgiving.
“But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.” (Matthew 6:6)
“But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.” (Matthew 6:17-18)
“But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your alms may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.” (Matthew 6:3-4)
