Friday- 2nd Sunday of Lent

Hey! This weekend is the Second Sunday of Lent and I also just found out it's Random Acts of Kindness day so make sure you take care of those random acts of kindness as well. Today I'm featuring the second reading today.

Beloved: Bear your share of hardship for the gospel with the strength that comes from God.
He saved us all and called us to a holy life, not according to out works but according to his own design and the grace bestowed on us in Christ Jesus before time began, but now made manifest through the appearance of our savior Christ Jesus, who destroyed death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.
(2 Timothy 1:8b-10)

Well I went to the Stations of the Cross today and I realized that the world is going downhill. Just a couple of years ago, the whole church would be filled every Friday to hear the Station of the Cross, and today, there were less than 20 people, not that I counted or anything! I just love how our priest reads the Stations of the Cross with so much passion. It's as if he actually felt the pain and knows the exact emotions of Jesus while he was going through this. He might just be reading a page from a booklet, but it feels like so much more. He does the same thing when he reads the Gospel every weekend. He makes you feel like you're actually there when you listen to it! I think it's amazing.

So I was wondering if you guys really know what the Stations of the Cross are? Tell me what you know about them in your comment cause I'd really like to know what you guys know about the Stations cause they mean a lot to me.

Oh and I forgot to tell you that this kid in my class, thought that Easter was when Jesus was born and I just wanted you guys to know that I think that it's really sad that he wasn't exposed to a religious life ( I don't just mean as a Catholic but in any kind). It's sad that some people are so ignorant...

Well goodbye!

I guess I sorta agree. I mean, it's kinda sad when I know more about your religion than someone who is actually part of your religion. I think if someone is gonna be a part of a religion,they should know what it's about and what they are celebrating. Because then how would you know if you disagree, or want to become a part of another religion, or something like that?
