Ano nga ba ang saysay ng holy week sa buhay ng isang Christian... Sabi nila its the time when Jesus has saved us from our sins. Thus, for us to be saved we have to seek forgiveness for all the sins we have committed throughout the year. And part of our repentance is we also do observe fasting, and we also abstain from doing things that makes our earthly body happy like partying, drinking...
But, do we still observe all these things, refrain from having wild parties, drinking eating as much as too much?
Nowadays, you will notice that most of us do observe holy week by spending with friends out in the beach, partying until dawn, drinking, dancing wild, smoking....
Its so sad that many of us have forgotten the real essence of holy week, For God so loved the world, He gave us His only Son Jesus Christ to die in the cross in order for us to be saved and to give us the chance to be with Him.
"Lord Jesus, thank you, for saving us from our sins and for giving us the chance to be reunited with our Father. Amen."
