Rememberance and celebration during the coronavirus

Today we remember that Jesus Christ shed innocent blood for us. We remember that Our Father loved us so much that He gave us His Only Begotten Son. Jesus took the nails because He couldn't bear the idea of eternity without us. He would have died for even just one of us and if needed, would do it again in a heartbeat because He loves us so much.
During these times, it might be hard to feel it. We can't go to Mass in person because we might get sick. However, perhaps that will help us remember to celebrate more joyously than before at Mass, especially next Easter! For now, remember that Christ opened so many doors for us and be grateful for all He's done. I don't really know what else to say, but I felt the need to say something. Happy Easter!

My absence and failing this lent

I have not posted a blog entry in over eight months. I have revisited this blog and edited my posts, but I haven't made a new entry. I had a long job search for about a month after my last post, then I took on two jobs and went back to school in January. I quit one of those jobs in March, but then the coronavirus popped up. I now plan to get back into blogging now that I have the time for it. Looking forward to it!

Also, as I said, a big pandemic called the coronavirus has swept the nation, as we all know. My goals this lent were to do the Fast of Daniel and avoid electronics. We haven't really observed our Lenten promises as a family. I guess the stress of the coronavirus made us forget about Lent. Reguardless, Holy Week is here. This is a week where you can get back to your lenten promises and prepare for the crucifixtion of Jesus. Ask God what you can do to prepare. Pray the rosary daily, watch Mass daily, or make donations for nurses and doctors. Perhaps this can wrap up a bad lent. I just don't really know what else to say.
