IT IS AS IT WAS + + +

For a heavily catholic country like the Philippines, Holy Week or the week we remember the sufferings and passion of the Christ has been one of the most important Holidays of the year. More than 80 % of the total population of this country submit themselves to several church activities in order to reflect and ( hopefully ) to redirect themselves in a particular manner that is in accordance to their Catholic Faith.

THE PASSION.
Few Years ago, I was one of the millions of people worldwide who have watched the very controversial movie The Passion of the Christ. Admittedly, my tear glands performed it's natural function.Yes! I cried. And even up to now , this very moment of writing this entry, as i watched some scenes from that movie, i still have a hard time holding up my tears.

ENDLESS and LIMITLESS.
True Love never dies. Jesus' Love is True and perfect. So it never dies. It is endless, unconditional and knows no boundary. Nothing in this world can keep us away from his LOVE.
And that maybe explains why even if we have watched The Passion of the Christ a number of times already, we still are affected by it, we are still moved to tears. Because His Sacrifice of love is endless. IT ALWAYS WILL LINGER on our memory...

IT IS AS IT WAS...
In this season of lent, I believe this is a reminder that Jesus is forever. He Died ON ThaT CROSS thousands of years ago. Yet, He rose to LIFE. His Love is Undying, and NEVER Changing... IT IS AS IT WAS.
