Removing your Robes
Last Sunday was Palm Sunday and it's a day of obligation for every Catholics... To be honest I don't want to go to the chruch that day.. I felt so bad since Saturday night until Sunday morning... Hindi din ako kumanta sa simabahan, bagkus I slept until 10am.
Since I badly need to attend my CO (Covenant Orientation) sa SFC I have no choice but to go to the Church of Queen of Peace. I never attended the 11am mass instead from Paya Lebar MRT I ate early lunch at KFC... When I arrived at the Church it's already in communion part... So what I did, I just stand at the back of the church waiting to finish it... I saw a lot of Filipinos here... and some of my bros and sis in SFC... I tried to focus in the mass but I cannot concentrate, until it's finished...
I went to Covenant Orientation for the new members of SFC half-heartedly... But when I saw the eagerness of everyone... The joy... endless laughter’s.. endless hi and hellos... the bonding... the camaraderie... the enthusiasm to everyone.. My heart fills with joy once again... I saw myself cleaning the chairs as well and having endless chit chat as well...
After the CO, I praise God for having Romeo with me that time... Though I know he didn't knew that he's an angel in disguise that time when he invited me to go inside the church (sabi nya wish lang daw cya.. hehehe..) And since the mass will about to start I told him to stay back na lang kasama ko... hehehe.. :)
While we're waiving our Olive leaves during mass.. it mentioned in the Gospel that people on that time they removed their robes and put it sa daraan ni Hesus... When I heared it.. I know that was the message of God to me that time... He's asking me to remove a lot of robes in mylife... my worries... anxiety... guilt of the past... bitterness inside of my heart... pride... being doubting Thomas... being self-centered... arrogant... and so many bad habits that I have right now... I want to cry that time because some of robes I cannot remove in mylife... I'm so ashamed because If Jesus will come to me right now I have no face to show to him... I don't know how many robes I can remove in mylife... But I believe with the grace of God I can do it in due time.. maybe not now but I'm hoping I can do it in near future...
How about you? What are your robes that you will offer to him?
In this season of Lent continue to pray for one another... May God continue to reign in our heart...
To God be the Glory!
