GODSEND FRIEND

Fri, 04 Dec 2009 16:00:00 +0100

This for a great friend of mine, who continues to encourage me, in everything that is good and pleasing to the Lord's eyes. She helps me to stand firm in my faith, she is the person I run to whenever I feel weak and down.
She really is a Godsend friend!

THINKING OF THE CROSS

THINKING OF THE CROSS

Why do You have to carry the cross,
The weight of my sin, for me?
Haven't I've done enough to hurt You?
As I think of how You loved me,
You gave your life just to tell me.

And how much was Your suffering?
What were You thinking that very day?
You were hurt, You were beaten,
You were bruised, You were broken.
Yet you are still taking courage, why?

What's my real worth to You,
Like a precious stone,
Like precious silver, like gold.
You were thinking of me, [...]

A Touching Experience of Our Universality

Last Holy Week was my first time to spend the holiest days of the year away from the Philippines. For the past 21 years of my being a priest, I had always been in the Philippines... tied up with some retreats, or recollections. Our group of 31 pilgrims -- all Pinoys -- had our Holy Wednesday prayers at the shrine of the Black Madonna in Janas Gora, Poland. We spent Holy Thursday and the morning of Good Friday at the Divine Mercy Shrine in Cracow. However, what was most memorable for me was t [...]

LIFE IS A SENDING!

Thursday of the 4th Week of EASTER

The Mass Readings for Today (Acts 13: 13-25; John 13:16-20) are focused on the reality of our earthly life as a SENDING. Jesus was sent, an apostle of the Father; Paul was sent; we are now being send. Therefore...

We have Confidence for each day -- not simply based on the nature, the intelligence, the learning, the capacities we have. This is now mere product of psyching up ourselves. We have confidence because over us is G [...]

After the Assembly

webapostle@rome67ad.com — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 16:00:00 +0100

We just finished another Provincial Assembly, the 14th edition so far. As it has always been the case, we talked about the apostolate, particularly the viability of the magazines, the dwindling sales from the bookstore, and the perennial problem of late delivery for most St Pauls publications. Though I am still waiting for that day when we will be talking equally about spirituality and the other wheels of the Pauline car.

But inspite of that, we survive. It's all God's gra [...]
