The frequent reception of the Sacraments, I mean. I've managed recently to work in daily Mass three times a week in between dropping Velcro Boy off at school and the gym. Of course everything else is suffering, but I think that is necessary at this time.
But, I digress...
I made it to two (out of 3 ) Masses last week plus Reconciliation and I found the difference in myself to be amazing! I was more patient and tolerant. I recognized several occasions when I ordinarily would have lost my calm...but I didn't. I felt less stressed too.
We've been to Mass twice this week so far (other than Sunday, of course), once as a family and once on my own and so far it's been a pretty OK week. Of course there are a few more coming up too...
We might even get to an Extraordinary Form Mass for the Easter liturgy! Let's pray Doodlebug naps Saturday (he's been dropping them lately :( and I'm soooo not ready for that) so we can let him skip nap on Sunday.
Wonderful. There is certainly a difference when we take time for Jesus.
