In Acts 8:29, we're reminded that God wants us to "be like his Son" Jesus. But we all have times when we don't really act like Jesus. Things happen in life that make us angry, or jealous, or greedy. Or, to put it another way, we get dirty.

So we need to clean up. And that's what Lent is all about. Lent reminds us that we need to clean up to become more like Jesus.
