Mass

Mass was great today. I dunno, the priest put things in perspective. God only asks that we come together on Sunday to worhip him for ONE hour...thats not much...I've played games for 3 hours....I've watched movies up to 4 hours...I've chatted up to 5 hours....why can't I worship a GREAT God for ONE hour?
Also, I was thinking it in this way (I think what Im about to say is gonna sound so calculative, but still, I blame it on the accounting paper Im taking) You see, worshipping God is a great investment. He loves you, is all merciful, all loving, all knowing, always listening, always there, always protecting, always calling you, yes...Y O U...a mortal being....and who is HE? HE is God....what does He ask of you?
Your love...yes....thats it. Ever watched someone try so hard to impress a human being? Example, a guy after a girl. He tries so hard to impress her, to be good with her friends, to wear nice stuff, to look good, smell good, sound intelligent...is it ever a guarantee that she will like him? Nope...I say best chances...50%. Either she likes him, or she doesnt. Are her affections for him guaranteed? Nope....I'd say 50% too....it may just be a matter of time before she grows bored, or falls for a better guy. See the comparison? Hehe...kinda stupid actually...comparing God with a woman...but still...the point isnt the comparison..the point is what God offers you...


O yea...this is gonna be last post till my exams are over. My first paper is on the 11th, then on the 15th, then 21st, then 23rd of June. Why did I list down the dates? Cos you can pray for me. Yes please!

Yeah the Homily was awesome aye, I think it was good that Fr. Joe's homily was simple, and easy to understand. It was youth friendly but at the same time not exclusive of the rest of the congregation.
In fact, one of the new recruits did a talk tonight on the Mass, and he quoted a lot of what Fr. Joe said in his homily! So that was encouraging.
God bless our priests!

All the best for exams. I wish I were as good at blogging as you...
