Lent is a solemn Christian observance beginning on Ash Wednesday and concluding before Easter Sunday. It commemorates Jesus' 40-day fast in the desert. Christians engage in fasting, repentance, prayer, and spiritual reflection, preparing their hearts for Easter. The season emphasizes self-examination, moderation, and acts of charity. Lent is observed across various Christian denominations, encouraging believers to draw closer to the divine through introspection and devotion.
