Herald Malaysia - daily news source with Malaysian and Global coverage of the Catholic Churches. Catholic News,World Christian News, Malaysia Church News
Today we celebrate Palm Sunday, the first day of the holiest of weeks. It is a day when our Lord Jesus Christ humbly made His royal entrance into Jerusalem on a donkey all those years ago.
I read in an article some words that vividly describe the emotional highs and lows of this Holy Week: hosanna, confrontation, betrayal, denial, scourging, crucifixion, tomb and resurrection – “He is not here! He is risen!” – the glory of Easter. I think too often we set our sights on very lofty goals during Lent. We want to abstain from everything we like. We want to attend all the Masses, novenas and Stations of the Cross that we can fit into our schedules. We want to give more alms and donations to those in need.
Have I shared my gifts of time, money, love, and attention with those in need? Have I used the Gifts of the Spirit gifted to me? Have I abstained and fasted enough? Have I prayed or read the Bible enough?But this year it’s different. I am not beating myself up about not having such good Lent grades.
