Smoking. I hope that I will stay off them after the 40 days as the UK ban on smoking starts on July 1st. They are bad for me, they are anti-social but I love them. I hope after lent I will be able to say that 'I loveD them!'

Law of <-Law vs Grace->. Grace unto you.
Sacrifice of <-Sacrifice vs Mercy->. Mercy unto you.
Division of <-Division vs Peace->. Christ is our peace.
For the will of God is: "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice".
Do the will of God precedes "receive the promise": Heb 10:36.
Those who did not "died" & "received not the promise": Heb 11.
First "finished" the human "race" in John 17 did the will of God.
As for "it is finished" in Jn 19, it brings forth death: James 1:15.
Perhaps first "finished" gives no "place" to the second finished.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

I think I wil be giving up gossiping about other people. I am so bad at that. Also, bitting my nails and drinking soda.
