Today’s blog is more of a question than offering any sort of answers. Yesterday, Palm Sunday on the Christian calendar, marked the beginning of Holy Week – the most honored time of the year as we prepare for the events of Jesus’ passion, death and resurrection. In the Catholic tradition in which I was raised, it is a time of prayer and sacred ritual and a time in which we set additional time aside for these things. The question I invite you to bring to prayer today is:
- How are you going to observe Holy Week?
- How will you be giving honor to this sacred time to be with God, to be present to your higher self, to be open to guidance, direction, healing and comfort?
- How will you be setting time aside to be with Jesus (or any other chosen guru)?
My answer to the above questions is that I will be taking a week off of blogging and a week off of the other “busy” activities and redirecting my time to prayer, contemplation and reflection. I will be returning to the blogging stage on Monday, April 9th. So until then, Happy Holy Week and a Blessed Easter to you!
