The Dream Still Has Time!

Let the message of Easter fill our lives!

It is hard to come to the end of Eastertide, but we follow a historical event. After fifty days from the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus, after the Ascension of the Lord Jesus to the Right Hand of Father God, and after the Novena of Prayer with Mary the Mother of Jesus, and the Apostles, the Holy Spirit descends on them, and the Church is born. God the Holy Spirit, sent to give the followers of Jesus the gifts to save the world, works through these individuals and their spiritual descendants, to make God’s love present in the here and now!

We have to move on in our regular time to live out the Easter message!

We read in St. John’s Gospel,

Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, even so, I send you.”

John 20:21

The world seems to be always in a mess, but we live God’s Dream that Heaven will be on Earth!

We have been taught, we have received the Spirit, and now we bring the Love of God wherever we go and to whomever we meet.

The Divine Dreams still have time, live it!

Happy Pentecost Sunday!

Be Faithful Like Jesus!

Jesus models for us how to deal in any situation, be faithful to God!

We read in the Gospel of St. John,

“If anyone serves Me, he must follow Me; and where I am, there shall My servant be also; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.” John 12:26

We must look at this Gospel selection from the context that we are in liturgically. We are in the Season of Lent, the last days of that season and in the time called Passiontide.  We are preparing our hearts for Holy Week.

In this time, we know that Jesus would experience some horrendous abuse of those in authority in His culture. Jesus would experience denials and betrayals of those near and dear to Himself. Jesus would ultimately be murdered on the Cross. Yet He remained faithful through it all. Jesus would be honored by Father God and He would rise again!

Jesus is the Model for us all!

Our entering into the Passion of Jesus is not just for the days leading up to the Glorious Resurrection Sunday. Rather, Jesus sets a pattern for all of us follow in how we to live as His followers.

We will rise again regardless of whatever we have to experience! There is no stopping a child of God!

Have a most blessed and fruitful Passiontide!

Happy Feast of Elijah the Prophet!

One person who is faithful can change the World!

The Prophet Elijah kept the faith in YHWH alive and risk his own life to do it. His actions brought God’s People back to YHWH.

Today we celebrate the Feast of Elijah the Prophet and may we realize that our faithfulness to the Divine One can and will change our world!

We read in in Second Kings: As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up to heaven in a whirlwind. Elisha saw this and cried out, “My father! My father! The chariots and horsemen os Israel!” And Elisha saw him no more. 2 Kings 2:11-12

Have an awesome Feast Day!
