When it comes to love for a person, he can use the Sabbath for that.<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span>What does this mean for us believers in practice?<\/span><br \/>\n<span>Even though the church regulations oblige us to participate in the holy mass on Sundays and on public holidays, when someone needs our love and help, for example in caring for a small child, then he does not sin. However, we must also ask ourselves this:\u00a0<\/span><strong><span>What good would it do us if we were at three holy masses and did not help the one who urgently required our help right then? <\/span><\/strong><span>With a little goodwill and a proper assessment of all circumstances, things can be arranged in such a way that we fulfill our religious and other obligations. Will the excuse: be &#8220;I&#8217;m tired after a whole week &#8211; and still go to church?&#8221; What is fatigue?\u00a0For those who correctly understand the Sunday meeting with Jesus, the hour is not only not a burden, but they cannot even imagine their life without it.\u00a0Sunday without Holy Mass means nothing to him.\u00a0Festive lunch &#8211; we can cook it on another day.\u00a0Even time for a hobby, a hobby with a little love for God, can be solved differently. Constant non-fulfillment of obligations speaks volumes about your faith.\u00a0Here, it is not enough to say, &#8220;I am a believer.&#8221;<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span>Let&#8217;s also recall some distracting events, which are deliberately scheduled for the morning hours, to lure the faithful away from the Holy Mass. Some organizations also hold their meetings for this hour and organize various events, and it&#8217;s funny when they even do violence that you have to&#8230;<\/span><\/h2>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span>The Lord Jesus did not desecrate the holy day by helping the sick.\u00a0If the circumstances require it, we can miss the Holy Mass in exceptional cases out of love for our neighbor.\u00a0It must not become a general rule.\u00a0The daughter comes to visit, and the mother no longer goes to Holy Mass because she has to cook!\u00a0How many know how to arrange things to their satisfaction anyway and can understand it correctly? Goodwill. We want goodwill from others, and when God wants it from us, then we are deaf.\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bodily restrictions in favor of the dominance of the spirit are the way to achieve, not only to strengthen, the will of a person, but also to increase asceticism.
