According to the Bible, Jesus went to the desert and fasted 40 days and nights. Christians describe Lent as a 40-day season of reflection, prayer and fasting, starting from Ash Wednesday and focusing on spiritual preparation for Easter. Key observances include giving up luxuries (social media, sweets), increasing almsgiving or service, daily devotionals and deepening prayer life.
