Through the eyes of the Father
To help us enter into the Lord’s Passion today, here is a reflection from Make A Friar:
Day: April 6, 2012
Good News on a “Good” Friday
Today is “Good Friday”, considered “good” because in Middle English the word refers to holiness and piety.
Remember, it is a day of abstinence, so no meat today. It is also a day of fasting, which means you are allowed only one full meal today and two small snacks. This is health permitting, of course. It is also only a requirement for those between the age of 18 and 59.
