So this weekend is Palm Sunday, which means that we will hear from the entire Passion of Jesus Christ at mass. So, prepare your body to stand for a long time. What is so beautiful about this Sunday is that we learn about God’s infinite love. Jesus Christ goes to the greatest lengths to prove His love for us. This is so beautiful because, as Christians, this Palm Sunday reminds us that the perfect shape for a Christian is a cross. The shape of the cross goes infinitely outward in all directions, a symbol of self-gift, a symbol of incredible love. And we are called to imitate the Lord’s incredible love for us.
Have a blessed Palm Sunday. I love this idea of God’s infinite love. It gives me goosebumps. I am so pumped for Holy Week. You are in my prayers. This is Spirit Juice, peace.

Be prepared. “Be in the right place at the right time.” As Christians, we are often not in the right place…

Be Consistent With Jesus
Maybe or maybe not you have a friend like this, someone who is so good at giving grand gestures, someone who really knows how to show you a good time. But that person then, like, ghosts you for two weeks straight. If we don’t have consistency in a friendship, then it just feels empty. And here is what Jesus is saying in this…

The Holy Name of Jesus
So, the coat of arms in my archdiocese is epic. It shows a phoenix, which is a symbol of resurrection. And on the chest of the phoenix is the IHS, which is the holy name of Jesus. And so, in the first reading for this Sunday, Saint Peter, our first pope, heals a man by the holy name of Jesus. He can heal because of his name because Jesus’ name is mighty. In the Old Testament…
