Pain, Suffering and Death are usually the reality in life which most if not all don't like. Who wants pain, suffering and death anyway? This is somehow the reason why some take their life through their hand to end pain - to end suffering. Others are dismayed in life and so they chose to do same instead, they lose hope. But, Christ took that pain, embraced suffering and brought that cross to Mt. Calvary. On that mountain of calvary, He finished His way and accepted God's Way. Some might have the choice to end life on the way, finding their own path. Yet, Christ continued to prolong His agony with those pain to his death. His body is weak which belong to the physical world but His love remains. This Holy Week is a loving reminder to all. Don't be afraid to face the reality of life, embrace your pain and suffering with joy. Just like God exalted Christ, you too could be exalted by God. Follow God's Will just as Christ did.
When we join Him in this way of life we'll be also joining Him in His Resurrection
Have a fruitful Holy Week everyone. God bless us!
The Love which Christ lived here is not the kind of love we usually wish to have...
Traditions and Modern practices: Modern practices cope with new discoveries and situation of the present but what remains are fundamental truths which were lived before us and continue to teach and live now, we called traditions. Now, are our traditions obsolete? Basically they are'nt. Because, without those our present is formless, absurd, not firm. Time changes, but our essence does not. This essence requires deep space a sense of awareness of our being. The Passion of Christ speaks a lot of values that human should be aware of and live. It's not only a traditional practice that we do every year but it invites us to see behind His passion e.g. behind those pain, suffering and death. ........
