SIGNS, WONDERS AND MIRACLES

       Today the Lord reminds us in the 1st reading that we have to be careful in our words, thoughts and action. Sometimes we easily get carried away by the things we see and hear that we judge wrongly. It is important that we pray and think long and hard before we act on something. We can never be too careful especially when we are not at peace with God and ourselves at the time we are confronted with these things. There is more to it than meets the eye. We tend to see and hear things in various ways and the difference matters a lot. We encounter all kinds of people and situations in life. We sometimes succumb to the pressure and tension that build up when we are confronted with the anxiety and turmoil it brings about.    We should always seek to follow the standard of God in our judgments and we will never be led astray. There was a time when I was feeling very sick and was roused from my sleep by a sharp pain in my stomach. I felt like throwing up and I...

We may have been travelling long and hard enough without being certain of the outcome. There are several paths that can lead us to several places. Where is this journey taking us? We've got to have a ...

   There’s    no better way to start the 1st day of the New Liturgical Calendar of the Catholic Church than to look to God and focus our eyes on Him as he gives us hope to look forward toward the fulfillment of what He has promised to us as foretold in today’s 1st reading. Amen. Hallelujah! Reading  1 Jer 33:14-16 The days are coming, says the LORD,  when I will fulfill the promise… No matter how unsure life may be and how unfair it may seem we can always rely on the one true God who was, is and will always be forever. If we will just take to heart at all times the assurances of God in the scriptures then there is really nothing that should stop us from following the right path that leads to God. We should constantly implore God's help in prayers so that we faithfully live out His example in our lives. In the  Philippines  there is an expression being said when people are so bent over and head strong about doing a certain task like nothing can eve...
