Luke 6:45
A good person out of the store of goodness in his heart produces good, but an evil person out of a store of evil produces evil…
------------------------------------------------------
Before the year 2001, the 11th day of September means nothing. People would come and go on that day just like any ordinary day. But all that changed in that fateful day of “nine-eleven”. Suddenly, everyone in this planet have been presented with what evil can do to humanity. The days after which are trying times.
But life must go on. We can not forever live within the memories of that day. The early Christians have suffered and endured persecutions because of their faith. They were killed and fed to the lions simply because they love and serve You, Oh Lord.
For that, it is already comforting to know that this has not happened to me, to us. At least, not yet. But if it does happen, and the “opportunity” comes to present itself, I only ask one thing from You – that You may grant me the strength – mind, body and spirit, to accept whatever You what me to do.
You have done that two-thousand years ago, and you have become our hope that does not disappoint. Instill in us a good heart, so that only goodness and righteous deeds would come out of it.
Let us pray +
There is nothing too hard for You, O God! And you being our Master, should put all our faith on this fact. And every evil, disabilities, sufferings, and disasters of this world would be nothing but mere instances in a likewise ordinary day. Amen +
“Sufferings and disasters surround us
And those are all that we see.
Try to refocus your strength, your mind, your thoughts
And you will find that God is above of them all.”
To you, Lord, I will offer a sacrifice of praise.
