Me and my husband attended today's early mass. As of now we do not attend Sunday Mass because our kids can't stay put so we can't concentrate on the whole celebration so we decided to just attend weekday early mass schedules. The topic of the Gospel is the times when Jesus shed tears when he was still on earth. Even though he is a God, he experienced frustration and suffering because of Love. First occasion was when his good friend Lazarus died. And another situation was when he was seeing his people on Jerusalem not believing on him. The grief was like of a mother seeing his son going to prison. This mother was everyday on grief because she gave all for his son but he ignored his mother's love instead. I am affected on this since I pray a lot that my daughters appreciate my love for them and I wish that love is enough to make them walk on the right path. That will really make me feel appreciated. The priest says that is exactly the same with our relationship with God. As Christians, we would like to bring tears of Joy to our Creator rather than tears of Sadness.
