I've been in one of those moods...
That the faith is too hard, I want to give up, yet... I'm constantly seeking joy and consolation in the faith. And I see nothing, even into the future that will give me that.
Mass. Just missed bumping into Fr. I again. Did he start his homily with it? Either way, he mentioned he struggles with this Gospel and doesn't truly understand it... But he said one of our stained glass windows was broken and had to be replaced, like ASAP. Insurance wouldn't cover it, so we had to pay. He then talked of the head guy who came to fix it. "Do you work out?" HAHAHAHA... I don't know why, the fact Fr. I asked that makes me laugh. Anyway, he said he used to, but now he just works to support his family, mentioned his kids go to the neighboring HS. "Interesting..." Lol. But then he was saying his kids are "good kids" so he won't deny them their wants. Fr. I then started talking about parents praising their kids as being good kids and if not them, to God we are good kids. So yeah... He was saying someone had to pay for our goodness. I really don't know how theologically correct that is. But whatever. *sigh* At the end of the day... I know it's something in me. Both priests and piano teacher have told me I'm too hard on myself.
I thought maybe I can cheer myself through retail therapy and decorate my #prayercorner. I really want to get something to cover (Without repairing. I like to remind myself my walls were pink...) the wall damaged from my chair. I'm also thinking of getting a cross for my altar to replace my Divine Mercy picture. I'm feeling this crucifix... But then the 22" seems way too big. I also want this, but have to think about framing. A "professional" frame is like $50. I'm also gonna do some cord / clothes pin thing for my prayer cards. cc 7500centfish kumquatqueen
Twitter Homily...
That reminded me... It was also confirmation this weekend. He mentioned the happiness of families, the kids. Lol... I was not happy with mine. I often laugh at my refusal to do the confirmation classes. I wonder how it would go over with this Pastorship (is that a word?).
In other news... takyttik82 said Aaliyah is starting First Communion prep. I thought she was already communed? But yeah!!!
