Holy Season in the midst of Covid 19!
A Few Comments About Holy Season
So many people of so many faiths, right in the middle of Covid 19 are attempting to acknowledge Holy Season . A time of great reflection in the spiritual sense during a normal Holy Season but currently, reflection is so much more intense. All of humanity is going through this pandemic together. Reflecting on our faiths, our values, our morality is an everyday process. Asking ourselves questions like, “Who do we want to authentically be during our time here on earth?” Never have we been more connected to one another globally. Have we ever felt more vulnerable as a species.?Covid 19 , for many of us, has been a wake up call. The Corona virus has helped us clearly see what is important to us. What we thought was important before the virus, may be thought to be unimportant, superficial and meaningless in the world of Covid 19 and the days to follow. So how will Covid 19 change you?
Let us Grow and Change
We can look at the Pandemic as an opportunity to change ourselves for the better. Become better neighbors to those living in our own communities. We can become better neighbors to those living all over the globe. Try to help. Be more considerate. Reach out in new ways to make our planet a safer place in which to live. Make humanity and societies more aware and considerate of each other. Look closer at how we are taking care of our planet. Begin to care more. Give more. Do more to make our world a better and safer place.
See each other as a true brotherhood or family. We are all in this together. All over the world, every color, every faith, every sex, every age and possibly every species including all living things are connected! People as well as inhabitants of this great earth are connected. Respect all and take better care.
Let us Pray
During this Holy Season, let’s ask our great Lord to help us learn, live and grow from this catastrophic pandemic. Help us to trust in His wisdom. Trust that good will come out of all this fear, loss and pain. When we do get through this pandemic, help us to love one another and to reach out to the many who will be in need. And let us not forget to be grateful to all the good Lord has given us in order to get through this painful and frightening time.
