Stations of the Cross

So, last night, we had the lovely opportunity of going to chapel sometime between 7 and 9 instead of 10 this morning. Now, if anyone knows me, 7 at night is much better than 10 in the morning. Because of the paranoia game that went on on campus, I am lacking in chapel credits because I was too "paranoid" to go. Anyways, I decided that I had to go to get more chapel credits. Last night's chapel was probably the best chapel so far this year. There were 14 stations and each were just talking about Christ's life and how his characteristics should be evident in our lives. One that really hit me was this station that had a mirror with the face of Jesus drawn on it. We sat in the chair and looked at ourselves in the mirror. There was my face, but in front of it was Jesus'. Definetely made me feel disappointed in myself in the way that I am not portraying Christ in my every day life. Another one that really as hard was this station talking about how Joseph of Arimathea and how he took care of Christ' body after he had been buried. The questions that were asked were if we were taking care of our bodies which are temples of God anyways. I for sure know that I do not. There are some days when I go the entire day without eating or anything because I am so busy. This chapel was definetely worth going to.
