Monday was a blessing.
I was intending to go to confession and as I walked into the parish there was this really long line. Since I was intending for confession I just went and knelt down in one of the pews close to the confessional.
The past few days I was reflecting a lot about love and how to share love.
When I was at the parish I could not help but notice that the parish was doing a living rosary in honour of our Mama Mary. A living rosary is where there is a group of people and each person says one bead of the rosary. After each person said their prayer, they presented a rose to a statue of Mama Mary and by the end there was a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
I could not help but feel the love of the Lord and while I was examining my conscience all I could think about was our Mama Mary.
To be forgiven in confession is also a call to forgive others when they hurt us. After confession I could not help but feel loved. Just as much as we build a relationship with our Lord, let us not forget the first disciple who loves the people of God.
Next time you pray, don’t forget to say to the Lord that you love him.
Dear Lord, I love you.
And with that may God be forever praised!
