the Chrism Oils..

"The Oil of Gladness"
this is one name given to the Holy Spirit,
the early Church began the tradition of the Chrism Oil
making the sign of the cross on the forehead with the Oil,
on those being confirmed in the Church..
I will never forget the day i and my entire household experienced this..
i never wanted to wash my forehead,
the Oil blessed for anointing,
The Oil of Gladness
we are sealed in gladness
somewhere, deep within us,
there is great gladness,
even in the midst of suffering,
worry
fear
impatience
anxiety
doubt
there is gladness..
