The first quarter of the year is already gone and the last month was quite an amazing one for me. Well, I don't celebrate neither Easter nor Ramadan and I know right now someone is wondering what religion I am, hehe. Well, I'm someone that believes in Christ Jesus and my utmost priority is doing just what he says because that's what can save me or anyone in the end. I don't really know why some Christians celebrate Christmas but I've searched far and wide in the holy Bible but I've never seen where Christ asked his apostles or where the apostles practice such.
Anyways, I do know that before Christ died he instituted a feast which we popular call the Lord's supper or holy Communion. Christ was specific as he told them in turn to anyone who believes (Christians) to do it to to remembering him and also proclaim his death until he comes again. And when I searched further to know how often the apostles observed that feast, I discovered they did it every first day of the week which is every Sunday.
So having all of these things in mind, I'm still a bit not sure why some Christians choose to celebrate something that their master which is Jesus Christ didn't asked them to do. And we didn't even see the apostles do too. But then, surprisingly, the Easter holiday is world wide so the holiday is definitely going to be for everyone but for me that was just another day to stay at home and go about my daily activities.
Since I get reminded of the death of Christ every Sunday, I just start my week always filled with hope and assurance that God has a plan for my life and I try as much as I can to do the things that pleases God and also I try as much as I can to love everyone the way I should not the way I can. Try Learning from my mistakes and always being grateful for whatever situation I find myself and having it in my mind that it could be someone else.
The fact that I know that there is one who could lay his life for me even when I didn't deserve it, I always thought to myself, why then can't I at least try to be good to those around me. Well, it's not easy but then the more I try to do it the better I get at it and it has helped me see life in a whole different way from so many people. Sometimes I do feel like just caring about myself alone but I know that would only make others think that Christ is a joke and I know he isn't.
Showing love to others is one way to prove to anyone that indeed there is one who has Loved us first. I think trying to show love to others as much as I could was the highlight of last month for me. Sometimes people always say love doesn't exist and in my mind I just know that that person is also finding it hard to believe that God exists too or maybe they don't even believe he exists at all. Because God is love! And if you don't believe in one you can't really believe in the other because they go together that is God and Love.
The past month was incredible and I was able to accomplish quite a lot of things and I'm super grateful and blessed for having the chance to be in a new month and continue in this journey.
