the BIG booboo people make at mass( including myself at times!)

Hey all,

It's been a long while and the confirmation camp (27th Nov-30th Nov) is finally over and it has really been a very fruitful time for me. The plants have flowered and it is just amazing to the large number of confirments attending mass today.

While I was bathing earlier, something that I had forgotten about ages ago came back to my mind and I am having this stirring in my heart to share this with all of you. So here I am.

I'm sure all of you have experienced the usual draggy Sunday at mass, or dozing off during the celebration and losing concentration as the priest continues to ramble on...
Either that we have always treated sermons to be a good opportunity to catch up with our friends and a super good time for a short nap.

Let us just step into this scenario together and please do NOT fall sleep haha:

Image the normal sunday/weekday scene in church and everyone is seated at the pew waiting for the grand procession.

To everyone's surprise, the main celebrant was the Pope!!

In the meantime, every single one stood up to just to have a look at him and with their mouths wide-opened and not believing their eyes.

***(I'm sure all of you will agree with me that we'll definitely be paying full attention and simply awed by the mere presence of the Pope celebrating the mass with us ya?) ***

That is the trap.

People fail to realise that the One who sends the Pope and gave him the power is present at every mass-Jesus. Someone who is far more important and is the peak of every mass.

Hope that all my brothers and sisters in Christ out there to remember this scene each time we attend Mass or any Services and to give Him that much(or more) of Our very being.

Written with all of you in mind and with loads of love,

Joel
