2017-03-27: Quiet Monday

Still adjusting to the time. Woke up at 3am.

Went to mass in the morning and the reading was about the father who begged Jesus to come with him to heal his child. Jesus just told him to go because his child is healed.

The homily was about the father's trust in the words of Jesus. The way the priest presented it was quite touching. He translated the words in colloquial Filipino and he said it such a way that the father sounded desperate to have Jesus come with him. Then when he spoke the words of Jesus, he said it in a way that sounded very reassuring. The confidence of Jesus showed through.

The thought then is to trust in the words of Jesus. We may want him to do something, but in the end, we obey him in trust. His word is truth.

Came home for breakfast after mass and then stayed at home. Wife and her nieces and nephews went to the zoo.

When they came back, we had lunch and after lunch went to SM North to buy some stuff. We also had my watch fixed. The watch was given to me as a graduation gift so I wanted to have it fixed. Total cost is P2,500 or approximately CA$70. This is a good deal considering they have to purchase a part and replace the battery. Battery replacement in Victoria costs CA$25 already.

Came home and am ready to sleep. Had dinner and went up to bed early.
