This year April 10, 2022 falls on Palm Sunday. This week is Holy week.
In a long standing family tradition I went to Catholic Church to receive my palms. I haven't received palms at the Catholic Church since 2019. In 2020 the church was shutdown. We sat inside our cars and listened to mass on our devices. We went to church, but had to stay in our cars.
I met up with a friend who was just as sad about the current state of events and he was on the hunt for palms too. He found them in a vestibule area of a church about 20 miles where we sat in our cars.
I went straight there to retrieve them and to thank him. Rest in peace Chris. He passed away in August 2021.
Now I sit inside the Catholic Church on this Palm Sunday and I try to remember how our minds were before March 15, 2020. It's hard. I can remember those times but it is hard. I see the priest and a few other fear mongered people with masks on - STILL - and it saddens me. I cannot believe they are continuing the show.
The past year I went to a Baptist Church where fear was never allowed. π The pastor is only FAITH based and Jesus-centered. It is all about the BIBLE and FAITH and JESUS. There wasn't anything restricted or fearful. There wasn't a mask show. There was only love expressed.
I πprayπ we can get back to the way our minds and thoughts and actions were in 2019 and prior. I pray the mask show can just end. The brainwashing really penetrated through many mindsets, but I pray we can all get beyond it and remember how we used to behave and think.
I love my Catholic Church. I love my priest. I also love my Baptist Church and my pastor. I love Jesus. I love my family.
My mind feels pained that things aren't 100% restored. I pray my attitude, mindsets, mentality, senses, my heart and love, and thought-process is all 100% restored.
Dear Jesus,
I pray.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
