Retreat Experience & Christ's Suffering

   "We should love the Lord with all our hearts, with all our souls and with all our minds..."

       The quote above is one of the things I learned in our recent retreat. Because God loves us, He sent His one and only son, Jesus Christ to save us from our sins. Jesus Christ was nailed in the cross just to save us from our sins.

       After our retreat at Capuchin, I viewed myself in the future and saw good things. I saw myself having good relationship to others, to myself and to God. This was carved in my mind because as a person, I knew that sometimes I'm not really doing good, I sometimes forget what is right and what is wrong. I am just a person that commit sins and mistakes but, I should try my best for others to see Christ in me and that I am a Son of God.

   Our retreat really made me better, whenever I commit sin, I quickly realize that it is wrong, suddenly, all the lessons I have learned in our recent retreat pops out in my mind. I know I should apply the lessons I've learned after the retreat but, sometimes I keep on asking myself if I really get the true meaning of things during that event, but it's the past, what's more important is that I have made a conclusion that I will change for the better. I now know that Christ carried the cross, suffered in the cross, nailed in the cross and died in the cross for us just to save us from our sins.
