Lent Day #21

First, this is the day the Blessed Mother made her 10th appearance to St. Bernadette, back in 1858. Our religion is based on Faith. We have a history that was recorded at the time or a short time after events happened. They have been passed down through history. In my mind, they all happened or the visions, the stories, and the strength of this religion would have died out and faded away. I believe, even though I have not witnessed!

One of today's reflections (and the theme for the week) is forgiveness. It is very hard to forgive, but in light of the fact that Jesus forgives us every single time we sin, it is the least we can do as children of God--to forgive those who have offended us, persecuted us for our beliefs, mocked and betrayed us.

A very hard task, but no one said life was easy!
