Another co-worker lost his mother today. He suffered through her illness this past year and lost other family members along the way. Pray for Michael for strength and divine help to guide him through this new phase in his life. Yes, my connection is the loss of any mother and the closeness to Easter is also a factor. He will never forget it because Easter is the Resurrection of Our Lord, Jesus. My mom loved all of the holidays but most of all Easter. She loved singing on Easter Sunday. I guess that's why she waited until Easter was gone before she left. Michael's mom fought long and hard and left during Holy Week! The heavens are singing and praising because all of God's children are coming home! Celebrate the reunion of souls!
We often look for excuses when things don’t go our way, shifting the blame onto others instead of taking responsibility for our own choices. But excuses only grow stronger the more we feed them. This same pattern shows up when it comes to doing what’s right—we stay silent, waiting for someone else to step forward, rather than holding ourselves accountable. “What’s your excuse now?” is a challenge to stop hiding behind hesitation and a sense of true comfort in our own skin.
