United in Prayer

Month of September

It has been a year and a month since this monthly prayer gathering started. Most of what we inform the attendees are the calamities causes by the sins of all people against God. This is to remind people the seriousness of our sinfulness. It also allowed by God to stop perpetrators in their evil plans to bring suffering to people.

Mass Intention: A view from someone who experienced Vatican I

Someone asked me: what's the significance of announcing intentions before the Mass? Those who are attending are not concerned with the intentions so they can't offer those intentions, right? I did not answer since I have no idea. 

Know Your Enemy

Did someone hurt you? Intentionally or not? Did that person not like you, angry at you or hate you? Do you feel the same towards that person?

Summer season is the best time for outing in the Philippines. Aside from high possibility of good, sunny weather the school year ends during summer months.

How to Achieve Anything You Ask For?

Who has no problems, needs and wants? Often times we work hard to resolve our problem and obtain what we nee or want. But there are times that what you ask for is impossible in terms of human reasoning e.g. conversion of yourself or your loved ones, healing of terminally ill person and financial worries. So how to achieve anything you ask for even those impossible in human rationality? Let us not forget that we have an Almighty God Who is generous and compassion. 

Why Keep God's 10 Commandments at all times

Why Keep God's 10 Commandments at  all times? For Christian it is simple - because Jesus said so Himself when He was asked what to do to enter heaven (Matthew 19:17). Jesus acknowledge the 10 Commandments given by God the Father to Moses. He did not abolish the Law of God rather He invite us to revisit the Law in Him. Timely, this topic synced on today's (March 28) first reading - Jeremiah 7:23-28. In which people at that time did not pay heed to God. They lost their faith.

What Replaces Angelus During Lent?

So I wake up a week ago 5:58, then started my Angelus at 6am. But upon reciting it, I realized this is season of Lent - time to reflect on the great and sorrowful Sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Angelus declares the joy of the coming of the Savior but is this appropriate to be recited on Lent?

Meaning of Ceremonies in Holy Mass

Many of us go to church receive the Holy Eucharist or go to Sunday service receive the bread and wine but do not understand to honor the Lord but do not understand what this Gift means.

The Eucharist is indeed the Body and Blood of Jesus. When we receive them it is not just to honor Him but to consume His Body fully. "Remember on the night before He was betrayed and enter willingly into His Passion" [word of priest in Mass], He gave Himself completely to us Mind, Body and Soul. Such is His Gift that without the Eucharist we cannot survive.

Now let us ask ourselves, do we really receive Him the that it should be? He suffer pain and rejection every time we go to Mass and do not understand truly what is Gift is. Here, is the meaning of ceremonies in Holy Mass.

The Beauty of Aging

Many people invest so much on products to look young. They don't want to show that they are aged or aging. They don't want to see the progress of signs of aging. But little did we the beauty of aging. This is what I listened from the sermon of the parish priest during the mass. 

Aging is beautiful. Simply because it is the design of God. All things He made are beautiful and so aging is beautiful also. But why is it so? Originally, God created human perfect, without deformities. Before everything came He already have blueprint of each and one of us.Perfect. Beautiful. And EVERLASTING/ IMMORTAL. Meaning, no aging. But now, look what happened why did we age? It is because the earth was soiled by Satan, the ancient serpent. Because of the ORIGINAL SIN committed by our original parents, Adam and Eve we experienced death - death of soul.
