episkopos

the past weekend has been a blessed one...

episkopos - greek word for bishop

i happened to catch the early morning sunday mass for the bishops who were gathered at the pius xii catholic center

the mass was a mix of latin, english and tagalog attended by all the bishops (in the phils., including well known bishops like bishop bacani and cardinal rosales)
it was the first time i attended a mass when the seculars outnumbered the non-seculars... it was peaceful but i was a bit destructed because i was awed by their presence...

after the mass, i went outside the holy ground for my "unholy" habit of smoking and contemplated on my calling, call me impossible but i did had some priestly calling before... but even during that time i already had choosen to have a family of my own... because i believe i'll never be ready to be like them, i succumb easily to earthly things and i am too weak to have great discipline like them... all i have is my little faith which i wanted to be nourished...
