Maintaining Hope

Holy Chit! I liked that one

I can always use a good dose of hope these days. I'm stuck in this hopeless stupid situation not of my making and I can't get out of and I'm learning the hard way that the only hope is in Jesus and Mary.

I may not be in a good mood these days, but tomorrow is the Feast of the Seven Sorrows of Mary and I'm going to renew my consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I don't care if I'm not doing well--my mother will give me a shot in the arm. I don't care if I'm sick and discouraged and there isn't any good news anywhere (yesterday my mother tells me she found a really cool website on gnosticism. I thought oh for cryin' out loud--isn't there any good news, ever!). So what to all of it; I'm going to Mass and get reconsecrated. So what if I'm a disgusting pathetic sinner; Mary will bring me to Jesus who came for the sick, not the healthy. So what if I'm not even in the mood to go. I'm going.
