SEASON OF LENT

April 16, 2008

  What makes Lenten Season special?  If we look back in the past, how does a catholic celebrate it? Do they live with the gospel? Do they propagate their beliefs to other people? Do they display their love of country? Do they give and take when driving? So many questions yet why is there a celebration of lent. I believed that God has a humourous side because he touches our heart in the least expected times. This year 2008, my family went to mass at forbes to celebrate PALM SUNDAY. There were a lot of people there. There were rich people of course, celebrities, choir and all folks of life. But, as, I flashed back, it made me ponder that life is so beautiful. Life has its way of giving us life. Though, sometimes, we doubt our faith in him because, what we wished for wont come true. But reflecting back, if you continued to pray, you see how Jesus Christ can mold you to be a better person. I don’t know why did it happen. It just happened. Reasons and answers unfolds the beauty how he loves his creation. I firmly believed that going to him and being closer to him makes a good bond between families. I saw families who were intouch with one another. But,how can we go back to God if we dont know how to forgive ourselves? Forgiveness first is the key to acceptance. When there is acceptance there is tranquility. Tranquility means peace. And ,when you have peace in your hearts, you have  love. So from all these adjectives I presented, I hope that at least we move back in time and try to understand the meaning of lent and how Jesus Christ can touch our lives.
