Lent season is now finally over, and I realized a lot of things and gain new perspectives. Today we are celebrating the Resurrection of our Lord. We are celebrating Easter. We had undergone Holy Thursday and done with the last supper, mourn on Good Friday for the death of our savior and now celebrating the resurrection.
I was so blessed to have the schedule where I can serve the patients and at the same time to serve and be with the Lord, I attended mass and join the Visita Iglesia last Holy Thursday, it is a tradition in our family that is very hard to break, it is what I look forward every lent season, for it is one of those times where I can really talk to HIM solemnly and ask for forgiveness because I know I am part of those people who shouted to crucify him on the cross. I was one of the reasons why He died.
Good Friday. I had my duty and attended the "Simba sa Krus" then join the procession and made 'du-aw' with the Santo Entierro and the crucified Jesus. I had fasting and abstinence.
Black Saturday, the longest mass I ever heard. It took about 3 hours. But then it was worth it, because Jesus lives! He rose! We renewed our baptismal vow and had been blessed.
Easter Sunday, it's a good thing that I'm off today, I had spend time with my family in our own roofdeck. We had a pool party and lots of food and fun! A new bonding and memories to live by. I am so happy that we could still have fun and bond despite the busy life we all have, despite the pressures and stress of work, we could only have God and our family who will always be there for us! And I am so lucky no, I am so blessed to have BOTH!
I will forever be thankful for these blessings, a loving family and a God whose love is unconditional and majestic!
Happy easter everyone! =)
