It’s not a sin to yell at Jesus, “Why did you do this to me?” You’re only praying like the Blessed Virgin did if you yell at Jesus.
“Your father and I have been looking for you with great anxiety!”
It’s not a sin to have anxiety.

If anyone likes good writing, Mary’s Substack is the place to be! It is a great way to support independent writing, and IKNOW she would be grateful!
Here's where to find me when I'm not here! And please, if you would, notice the tip jar and the Substack. If I have more paid subscribers and more people monthly leaving a tip, I'll never get into such a mess by the end of the month again!

I shook with equal parts fear and rage, at an unjust deity who would demand a penitential season just because he had a birthday coming up. No, I wasn’t going to do penance. I wasn’t going to go into a box with a dangerous person and tell them my impure thoughts.

A “creche museum” has been opened in one of the vacant store fronts on Fourth Street. One of the local churches organized it: a display of as many Nativity scenes as they could collect, and the cost of admission is a donation.
