lessons from a Sunday's Mass
Mood:  bright
Now Playing: the same song as before...
Topic: lessons

this is rather simplified since I wasn't able to take notes during church (I didn't have a pen with me) but this should suffice- these are two lists that I was able to reproduce from the homily that was given at the Life Teen Mass yesterday

to live a Christ-centered life:
1. Pray (at least seven times daily)
2. follow the Commandments
3. remember the lessons that Parents have taught*

when to pray (at the very least- this is taken from The Liturgy of the Hours:
`in the morning (first thing when you wake)
`mid-morning
`noon
`afternoon
`evening
`mid-evening
`at night (the last thing before falling asleep)


*-myuh- okay, that is a very awkward way of saying the third item that Father talked about- but that is what he had said, I just didn't go into detail...

Actually, what Father had said with regards to this area is that it is very important that the parents do everything that they can do to direct the souls of their children to Heaven- specifically, he said that it is fruitless to have children and raise them if their souls were to be lost...

ah, don't mind the cut here too much- just a little mumbling on my part
*mumble* it would be nice if I did have the direct quote from him, then I wouldn't have to paraphrase like this -sigh-

****
-though I wish that I could have done more with this entry, this is a good start and I hope to keep up the lessons for future blogging

-wish me luck- better yet pray that I'll be able to do so! (hn, maybe I should start being more bold and specific about my prayer requests... ah- actually, I should just go eat now o.o;; )

(pray for me)
