Chapter 34: Mass
Anais looked at the altar and stared at the priest happily speaking about how great God's love is that is for everyone. She smiled and looked at the person beside her. Her mother is beside her and her mother smiled and lightly nodded her head and looked at the priest again. Anais looked at the her side and stared at Sam who is happily smiling with Amelia. She looked at them and cannot help but to smile wide. Anais is happy for her brother and her best friend. She was happy for Sam, it's because she sees the look of love in his eyes whenever he looks at Amelia. And her best friend on the other hand has that same look too. Her eyes then went to the other side of the church pew and is directly meeting the gaze of Mark who is with his family. She smiled at him, the latter chuckled and smiled wider to her. They already talked a while ago before the mass started and it's always been good to focus on the Word of God during the Sunday mass. The get together and the song of hymns for the Lord God, is always been a refreshing experience and at the same time it's in the knowing that it's the church of the Lord God in unity in Christ Jesus. It's in the meeting of people who loves God and worshipping the One who is full of mercy and full of love that we can get to have a closer relationship with Him. To marry a man who gets you closer to God, to our Lord Jesus Christ. The thought suddenly popped on her mind when the priest suddenly talked about marriages. She listened and the priest talks how family is important and how it should be rooted in God's love, in our Lord Jesus Christ. Who sanctified the marriage, the One who is full of love guiding two people together who are in love and Who loves Him. She smiled even more. The children will be full of love too. She answered through her mind. Love is always been the strongest. The love of God for the world, the love of God for His children. The love of Lord Jesus Christ that all He ever wants is for everyone to love one another, for it is through love that we truly understand what's the most important thing in this life. And that is treasuring each other's life through the love of God that is in us. The priest then suddenly spoke, “May the peace of the Lord God be with you.” Anais smiled and uttered the same phrase. “And may His peace be with you too.” The church bell was rang by the altar server and the song of hymn for the Lord God started. The pianist started to play the keys and the choir members sings. Her mother smiled and looked at her. “Peace be with you, my dear Anais.” She smiled at her mother. “May His peace be with you too, Mama.” She talked. She stared at her father and did the same thing. Before she looked at the two, Sam and Anais who is already smiling at her and uttered the same phrase. She looked at Mark and he is doing the same, saying the words with a huge smile on her face. She was smiling at him before his mother touched him lightly to take his attention. Her mother smiled and uttered the phrase towards her. Anais smiled and bowed a little and did the same thing. Mark then suddenly jolted for a little as he looked at her, his smile widened even more. “May His peace be with you.” They both uttered at the same time and laughed a little afterwards. -- The sermon is great and Anais appreciated everything that she heard from the Sunday Mass. And it's in the understanding that the Lord God is watching everyone and is seeing everything. She is always been grateful for the Lord God and is blessing. He is always been aiding us. Anais realized that although us His children may at times fall short and are sinners, the love of the Lord Jesus Christ is always been so full, and so enduring that His love is always been in us. Even at times when we stumbled, and sinned against Him. He is always been so ever loving. “I love You, Lord Jesus Christ.” She spoke before she did the sign of the cross since the mass already ended. She looked at her back and smiled at the priest and the priest blesses her. She then smiled at the other people who are smiling back at her. She then felt the gently touch of Mark on her shoulders and she looked at him. Mark is smiling and then he looked at the priest and smiled at him. The priest looked at them and is smiling wide. “I guess, there will be a wedding soon.” The priest spoke. Both Anais and Mark laughed at each other. “We have to grow more in love first and prepare the two of us for it. It's a bit too early.” Mark spoke softly. Anais nodded and agree to what Mark said. “He is right father. We still need a lot of spending and growing more in love with each other.” And to grow more in the love for the Lord Jesus Christ. She thought in her mind. Anais looked at Mark and Mark offered his hand for her to hold. She held his hand and they both smiled and went to their family who are already at the other side of the church, with their eyes smiling at the two of them. -- Anais looked at Mark who is reading the Bible and is highlight the pages with the highlighter. They decided that they will buy some foods for their family get together in the afternoon. So they stopped at the coffee shop. Anais looked around and smiled even more at how well looking the Perfect Blend Cafe is. A cafe that is the witness how their people's love blossomed, the love of one another, forming friendships, family, and even romantic connections. It's the cafe who is built in love. She looked at Ambrosia who just head out of one of the rooms and their eyes meet. Ambrosia looked at her and waved at her. Mark stared at Anais and smiled at her. He is thinking how he is glad that having her in her life as a best friend, a sister, and a lover, is always been the best. He looked at Anais and Anais is uttering words of compliments towards Ambrosia. And as he stared at the Bible, he smiled even more. Before he wrote something to his personal journal, thanking God for giving him, Anais.
