Who then is this about whom I hear such things?”
And he kept trying to see him.
As a christian, I get to hear things about this Man on a daily basis or atleast every sunday through scripture but like Herod, I make no extra effort to try to see Him.
I attend Sunday mass merely as an obligation on certain days and some I dont cause I am exhausted or am at work! My attendance is now days more for the purpose of finding that one hour of time to think I am spending with the Lord , where all I can remember is the patients at work and stuff I forgot or have to do!
Living alone in residency is hard ! I have to look after myself enough so I can make it on time to work and look after my patients and give them the best care! I also have to study and prepare presentations and sit through tests and questions at every rounds!
So despite having an app which reminds me to pray, I often swipe the notification and continue with my day! I know Herod was not a good man but I should commend his efforts to visit this man he hears things about!
Let us as christians not let that curiosity and passion for learning and participating in the eucharist die off ! Lets us focus a tiny bit of our time on “finding HIm”
The coming month is dedicated to our MOther , I hope to imbibe this quality of unceasing prayer and implent it one decade of the rosary at a time!
DO join me in finding the one we read and discuss about — our Lord!
AMEN
