The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Don't worry, OP. Protestants always tell me, "it's the thought that counts."

Daily mass is a thing my man, not every parish does it though.

You can go to the evening mass of the Saturday to fulfill the precept (if you're Catholic).

>"Blind Pharisee! First clean the inside of the cup and dish, so that the outside may become clean as well" Matthew 23:26

Of course not to say that going to church wont help you with cleaning the inside of the cup. But that verse is rather interesting as it also reminds me of Catholics who are fanatics about church attendance which doesn't really show what's inside of a man's heart (which is what matters), though if going to church helps you clean the inside of the cup (as it should if you belong to a good church) then one should make a serious habit about going.

But it mostly definitely is the thought that counts, for faith is a thought, and as is written "The just shall live by faith", and as Christ said, he came for the spiritual sick, not the righteous, so churches are like spiritual hospitals intended to clean the inside of the cup.

One doesn't need to go to church to clean the inside of the cup, but if you belong to a good church, please go, Christ is a doctor that travels, but it's nice to see him at his own hospital as well.

Start taking your sleep schedule very seriously. and I mean VERY, good sleep is not only important for your health but also your concentration and discipline. 4 hours before you go to sleep make sure there is no blue light emitting from your monitors/devices (enable "night light settings in your devices so that the blue light turns to orange/red) that should help you go to sleep, also NO CAFFEINE 4 hours before bed (my rule is no coffee after 3pm but some people do it as 12pm), Caffeine takes about 4 hours to flush out your system.

I also don't recommended taking sleeping meds to help fall asleep as I find they drastically lower sleep quality. but yea start taking your sleep schedule very seriously, my life has improved so much since I began doing so, the discipline I gained in maintaining a schedule has increased my productivity by a lot.

>wake up sick and have to miss service because of it

I have a good feeling this trial is meant to strengthen my faith somehow.

>have a job interview

>rains so hard and traffic gets so bad that I'm going to be late

>call them

>they already got someone else for the job

>suddenly the rain stops and the traffic moves

>was going to go to confession yesterday

>rains so hard that I'm worried my car would get stuck

>end up skipping confession again

>end up going to church the next day but misread the schedule and arrived late

>rain is starting by the time mass is over

Goodness, I'm getting the feeling God wants me to go to church and change nothing else.

The ONLY way to fix the "I'm late" meme is to leave an hour earlier than you usually would for EVERYTHING.

There is literally no excuse.

Don't most churches have an evening mass?
