“Behind passion and death is a glorious resurrection”

I have heard and known this inspirational quotes years ago, up to this date I still hold onto the this message.

If I’d let the pessimistic side of me rules, maybe I’d go crazy by now, or have done crazy things. As I take a look back of my own timeline, I’ve come to realize that there have been many hurdles in my journey that I had triumphantly overcome. I did not come from almost perfect and religious family but I am thankful that along the way I have met few good people who nurtured my faith and had kept it intact despite of everything.

These last of couple of years, some events in my life unfolded in my least expected way. Partly because of the choices I made. It’s not easy that sometimes, giving up has been my option. I am just blessed to have found His guidance in times when I feel so low and alone yet in a cheerful crowd. To have his guiding hands when I feel like I have nothing left to hold unto.

Just as today….I just found Him again…so in time when my mind is pre occupied of all the earthly necessities and I seemed to have lose all the positive energy.

I felt like missing Sto. Niño church, it has been quite long since I had been there, so I was thinking that I would attend a mass in there, but instead my feet was brought in Asilo dela Milagrosa Chapel, which has been the church that I attend a mass to each Sunday for a month now.

At the end of the homily, instead of the usual Apostle’s Creed the priest was like renewing our baptism and it was in that very moment, when  I found that inner peace again. I just feel happy and light within that it goes up to my lips and form a smile.

Life indeed has its many forms of unfolding the events in our life. Some maybe how we want it to be, while others might be in a way that we least expect it to be, but surely it is for the better.

Once again, I lay all doubts and troubles in him, and hold on this very quote “Behind passion and death is a glorious resurrection.”

Happy Easter everyone! May this special day in our spiritual journey, brings you a lot of Easter eggs of joy, hope, faith and happiness!
