Into Lent (or Goodbye Facebook)

So this will be my last facebook link/post/update until after Lent (though I will still be blogging). I have to confess I'm a little scared - scared at what God will reveal in my heart and scared at how much I may miss it. I wonder how much of my friendships are wrapped up in facebook. I wonder at how much weight I put on signing onto facebook and seeing that  people have commented on my status or posted on my wall. I'm planning to start stalking Joshusproject.net and learning more about unreached people groups.
My hope and prayer is that God will use this time to bring to light the truth of the value I place on people and feeling connected with them versus the value I place on God and being connected with Him.
I'm excited because I know I'm putting myself in a position to see God work in my life - to reveals sin but also to bring growth and deepening.
May this season of Lent be a continual reminder of God's grace.
