Hello Lotters,
this morning I was supposed to go with my eldest brother with some kind of fun run activity. now, the reason why i was upset last night because i was required to have a haircut just to go to that actually depressed me because i didn't want to. but still my brother can't handle two kids, so do as ordered.
but later that morning my mom was awake and told me it was canceled. instead of sleeping i decided to prepare another set of clothes, and went to Church for the first morning Mass.
I couldn't recall but the celebration was about Mama Mary's Risen to heaven and the Lesson there i think was "thou be done unto me o Lord" not much but it hit me.because i tend to complain much when my plan for the day gets disrupted with something else, most specially if it's the wrong day to do.
but i felt better knowing that I visited his Home after "months" of absence.

There is nothing to feel guilty my dear brother.
If you only think how God (Our heavenly Father) like our very own parents who were always waiting for us to say our feelings,same thing with God,He is always waiting for us to come to Him,and asks for His blessings,guidance and forgiveness.

hello jaiho, come to think of it, I used to walked a lot in the morning. and then visit the church to pray. but sometimes, when i pray am afraid because i was guilty into a lot of things.

It's good to visit God because just like any of us here - we all want to be forgiven. We all want to be heard. Though I may say that not necessarily in church because God is always with you. He is everywhere and as long as He knows the sincerity of our prayers, even if we don't know how to say it sometimes, He always hears us.
That's why it's always good to live in hope. It's never too late for everything no matter how worst our situation is right now. :P
And hey, LK. You should get a haircut. LOL. JK.

Hello there,
Yes, i know, but as time goes by i become uncomfortable with not going to the church. so, that time i took the advantage of not sleeping again after waking up that morning. well, am not in the worst situation comparing to others, probably i still have trouble motivating myself to it. i already did have a haircut

Going to church must have been something you needed to do. There was clearly a message that you had to hear. Your plans were changed but there was a good reason; so you could attend Mass and be reminded that it feels good to go every now and again. It sounds like you are very obliging to your family by being there to help out when they need you but be sure to do your own thing too!

Hello Paula,
yeah, i guess i made a mistake again for not going to church that often. but i never forget him, i just didn't feel like visiting.knowing i will have hard time listening some of the priest sermons. it's nothing for me when i helped my family, if they have others, they won't call for me. because they know i would be pissed.

All in God's time, Knight, everything will be beautiful in His time.
You must have done something good that the Blessed Mother liked. It ain't no coincidence that you'd be at God's home on a special occasion for Mother Mary.
Blessings, Knight, I know your life is about to change. Keep that faith formidable!

Good day.
I don't know about Life changing but times indeed change, it's not what it used. i should have gone with the flow when i had a chance. nah, i just do laundry the other day, that's not much. not to mention some other house choirs, the only good for me is when i get hired..

Hello Ms-pitot,
that's one good that we had for studying in catholic schools, it becomes a habit going to church. but time flies by when you're too far away from it though. maybe i might do this again next week. there's a lord of pardon coming in next month, i might as well be more concentrated in my prayers there.

hello edward,
the church isn't that far away and I can go there through walking distance. but still you are lucky enough to have work and still has time to pray. you could organize a prayer groups with some of your friends or co workers.

hi letran yes a visit to His house is always good for ones inner self'and I think you are almost too good to your family. Don't you ever think of yourself for a change?. I would not let my older brother tell me what to do when I am twenty six. If you did not want a hair cut then tell him to go jump in the lake,.you do not want a haircut.,darn its your hair.Do not let your family push you around as you are no longer the baby of the family but a grown man of great intelligence. use it.

Hello Hatley,
I am thinking of myself, but not that much everyday. i could always refuse or be grudge on it if they needed it bad then it would be sad to refuse. well, he canceled it the next morning but i was fine with it because i got comfortable having a haircut. everyday, i used to have headaches because my hair was too long.

Hello Ebuscat,
I am sorry but I am a Roman Catholic. i didn't condemn him, i was just inactive and avoid going to church, i don't want to be hypocrite in not doing gods teaching even though i go to chuch. but i miss visiting, sometimes i do need his presence, in a church.
