Yes because god will forgive you.
Giving up something at lent is to experience self sacrifice, so giving up half way through kind of defetas the purpose. (That is just my opinion though)
Yes.
If your birthday is not in Lent, then of course you can. If it is in Lent, you probably should still stay off what you have given up if you are serious about honouring Lent.
No. You can have cake.
Lent is a time of year in the Catholic church, prior to Easter, when you are supposed to give up something you like for 40 days. Giving up Facebook for lent is probably a joke.
Your Lenten sacrifice would be abandon.You would NOT have given anything up in sacrifice for your love of Jesus.Jesus sacrificed his life. "Keep your fast - It is small".
You can have whatever you gave up 40 days after you gave it up.Roman Catholic AnswerLent technically ends right before the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Thursday evening, so, if you want to get technical about it, you could probably get it back right after Mass on Holy Thursday. However, it is up to you, and in the spirit of Lent, you should probably wait until after Mass on Easter, which is when the feasting for the Easter season begins.
Lent is a time of fasting because it is the time prior to Christ's crucifixion while he walked through the desert. Making sacrifices acknowledges the sacrifices He made for us. Also, Lent is a time of solace, not a time of celebration. Our sacrifice can represent our solace.
no you do not have to give up what you gave up for lent on weekends (christians only)
He lent her the book yesterday.She lent over and picked up her drink.
Possibly, because the Lenten season ends on Holy Thursday with the Evening Mass of the Lord's Supper and the Easter Triduum begins. Generally, people eat what they gave up after 12 Noon on Holy Saturday or on Easter Sunday.
Because it shows that Jesus gave something for us, his life, and now we must in some way give something to him, to show that we are thankful for him dying on the cross for us. Lent is when you give something up for Catholic holiday.
Lent is celebrated differently by everyone. Usually you will give up something for lent or take up some form of betterment.
It means that they are not reading the Bible and God's word correctly.---Changes in Catholic EmphasisBeginning in the 19th century, it became common Lenten practice for some Roman Catholics in the US to refrain from certain foods, actions, or diversions that they enjoyed, to demonstrate a willingness to sacrifice. This was in a small way analogous to the sacrifice of Christ on the cross. Fasting and abstinence from meat became less common, often applied only on Fridays, as is done outside of Lent.---Secular Use of the TermOn a secular basis, the use of "giving up something for Lent" is used (often humorously) in response to questions about a change in personal behavior or diet, to avoid having to explain the actual reason.Example: "You want to play poker on Friday?" "No, I gave it up for Lent."---
