LIVE THE WEEK
Greetings of peace, joy and love!
God is pure love! In the face of love, God is powerless and the same love makes Him powerful. Jesus has shown us this image of God in His Passion-Death-Resurrection.
During His Passion: He healed the ear of the High Priest’s servant
He spoke the truth to Pilate
He empathised with the women of Jerusalem
He forgave those who condemned Him
He had compassion to the criminal
In the midst of His Passion He did something beautiful in the lives of people. If we want to make this week holy, let us try to heal broken promises and those we wounded by our sins and wrong decisions. Truth will set us free! Let us always be true to ourselves and to our love ones. Every person is a blessing, so let us not judge them but rather empathise and accept them, even their mistakes and sins. Let us be generous with forgiveness and compassion. Let us show to people the Christ in us. Remember, we are Christians – bearer of Christ.
Holiness is not just doing extraordinary things! True holiness is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well!
Prayer: Lord, it’s Holy Week again. Help me not to make it just a vacation week or false piety
week, but a real moment that leads to life, change and conversion. Amen
