Thus it is written that the Christ would suffer
and rise from the dead on the third day
and that repentance, for the forgiveness of sins,
would be preached in his name
to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem.
You are witnesses of these things.”
I am witness to this and so are you for the last 35 years of my life!
I stand up in faith and renew my baptismal vows with a candle and standing with many other faithful at midnight. As easter has passed, my new found love for vegetarianism and healthy meals has caught me to work harder on my life !
My willpower in avoiding unhealthy stuff and avodiing habits , has made me realise I am resilient and the fact that I had a 45 day streak on the hallow app , praying everyday for 10 minutes along with a prerecorded voice made me figure a prayer routine I can use!
Yes Lent is supposed to be a cleansing and revamping of our spiritual lives and following the faith and proclaiming it — yes it has been for me , explaining why I abstain for this time period! the 5 day break from work n spending with family and friends to celebrate easter has been a much needed reality check on how I need to use my work life as just that and focus on being a better human and spread my faith more …
So lets use this time to celebrate the resurrection of the Lord and say the Divine Mercy Novena for next Sunday !!
We are EASTER people! Let us Rejoice !
