The post reflects on Palm Sunday, recalling Jesus' entry into Jerusalem and the people's initial welcome followed by betrayal. It suggests that today, societal values still prioritize materialism over faith, highlighting a lack of genuine love for neighbors. Despite modern indifference, Jesus' return and judgment remain imminent. Embrace Him now.

I was lost, but now am found
So how's the whole Lent thing working out for you? Keeping all those Lenten resolutions? Yeah, same here. Out of four, I've kept one and a half. No excuses, I'm just a slug. But why should Lenten resolutions be any different than anything else in my life - half done? Maybe it's just the old …
Getting Older
Ok, before you say anything, I know I didn't post yesterday but I was just exhausted, I pretty much spend 10 hours a day staring at a computer screen, and frankly, when I get home I don't always feel like looking at another one, In addition, I had to do some work of the parish …
Are you ready
I mentioned in my last post how I have kind of drifted away from the faith in the last two years. Although I didn't lose my faith, I just stopped attending Mass, reading scripture, and praying like I should. So for today's post, I thought I would take a little time to explain what happened. …

Forty Days, Forty Posts
Here we are in another Lenten season. For the last two years, I have not written much of anything, I have stopped attending Mass and I have almost (not quite) gone back to my pre-reversion ways. With everything that is going on in the world I have come to the realization that I better get …
And Now a Word From Our Sponser
Here it is the first Sunday of Lent and the Gospel reading was actually the same one I used yesterday about Jesus going into the desert and being tempted by Satan. The first reading of the day is from Genesis and is the story of Eve being tempted in the Garden of Eden. As I read this …
Stop, Look and Listen
It's Saturday, the fourth day of Lent and so far I have kept to my promise of writing 500 words each day. Now I am not saying they have been 500 quality words, but they have been words. Maybe today since I have more time I will be able to do better. Why do we …
