pray

Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name. Amen.(source)

do

Fast for one meal a week, one food item for all of Lent, or one activity or technology for one part of each day.  Do this in order to make space in your life to be more dependent on God to satisfy your cravings and desires.
