Life is too short to waste on things that will only bring grief and trouble. We should be careful on how we live our life and be responsible for our every action. If we can not undo some things, we can certainly make things work for the better. We have been equipped by the Lord and let us no longer become ignorant of this. We are able to tap into the ever flowing stream of God's Holy Spirit which bears endless fruits of love, peace, joy, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility and self control. Amen. Hallelujah!
Ecclesiastes 11:9-12:8
...Ward off grief from your heart and put away trouble from your presence,...
We are destined for much greater things that we can see right now. Thus we should set our goals higher than what people normally aim for in this life. Let us not reach the end of our lives regretting what we should have done or not and do what we have to do right now. Amen. Hallelujah!
Psalm 90:3-4, 5-6, 12-13, 14, 17
R: In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
3 You turn man back to dust, saying, “Return, O children of men.” 4 For a thousand years in your sight are as yesterday, now that it is past, or as a watch of the night. (R) 5 You make an end of them in their sleep; the next morning they are like the changing grass, 6 which at dawn springs up anew, but by evening wilts and fades.
Let us not take for granted the things that Jesus is communicating with us everyday of our lives. What He wants for us is to gain knowledge on matters that we do not know and enrich what we already know. Nothing in what Jesus is telling us is difficult to understand nor will He purposely confuse or lead us astray. All of these we can surely have access if we will just pay attention to Him as what today's gospel is telling us. Amen. Hallelujah!
Luke 9:43b-45
43 While they were all amazed at his every deed, Jesus said to his disciples, 44 “Pay attention to what I am telling you. The Son of Man is to be handed over to men.” 45 But they did not understand this saying; its meaning was hidden from them so that they should not understand it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
