As you begin to reflect the week of passion, focus more on how God loves you, and be glad, more than just to be in sorrow.

Each morning of your life is a beautiful expression of how much God cares for you. He opens your eyes to let you see the new wonders to come if only you permit Him to use you as a vehicle of His love among others. His presence is manifested through the gentle words you speak, the loving arms you extend to help, the listening ears you lend to hear of other’s fate, and your able feet to bring your gift of presence to all you will meet. These will be your weeklong reflections. Be glad that in your unworthiness the opportunities are still offered by Him for you to attain His grace. These are maybe simple things for you to do, but they do start a wonderful meaningful outlook to complete the holy days for you. Start the simple task by sharing a smile, as you journey towards making these days worthwhile.

It’s only when you grow in the love of God, that there will always be no room to be sad.
