Jesus Christ died on the cross for us, sinners, so we can be redeemed and this Lenten season we are reminded of that supereme sacrifice of the Lord. This week is one of reflection and before you hit the beach or take that long ride out of town for some r and r, perhaps it would do us some good if we enrich our spirituality first. Attending a retreat or recollection is recommended as great food for the soul. Now is also the time to realize the meaning of sacrifice even as for some it may go as easy as foregoing meat and for others as extreme as self-flagellation.
Visitas Iglesias, which is doing the Stations of the Cross in seven different churches, starts tomorrow. Then on Friday a re-enactment of the crucifixion is staged in the town of Palo, Leyte which has become a tourist attraction as much as a religious event.
Right now I'm still at the office, hoping that my "mag-ama" gets home in time before the big rush of everyone off from work.
blog hopping, have a nice easter weekend
