Entry 55: Holy week traditions...

 Fr. Soc on blindly following Holy Week traditions. Holy Week is about what Christ has done for humanity. Let the memory of God's mercy sink in without any compulsion to do something. Just relish His Mercy and bask in the radiance of His Love. Holy Week is to tell God thank You. Holy Week is not what we do to make these days holy. It is about what Catholics must do. Nor is Holy Week about religious traditions and practices done to 'feel good' after. Fasting is good but without malasakit (concern for others) it is nothing. Prayer is good but without laying aside personal comfort it is nothing. Visit 7 churches? Maybe better, give food to feed 7 hungry people.
