Giving up invisible things

as i mentioned in my previous post, i am still fairly new to lent. however, in the last several years it has become a very meaningful part of my journey. for the last little bit i have focused on giving up things which you cannot see. this year i think i am being led to surrender "first-ness" for 40 days. i am going to try and give away the opportunities i have to be more important than other people. i have this opportunity at the grocery store (both with where i park and which checkout lane i choose). i have this opportunity at home with the wireless laptop and the tv remote. i have this opportunity on the road and in my marriage. it will definitely be a discipline. but i am hopeful that it will shape me, embracing Jesus' call to be first by being last. how are you going to be shaped this lenten season? how is God calling you to be formed into the likeness of Jesus by the invisible things you set aside in order to make more room for God's work within you? let me know (hit the comments link below)
