    DAILY BIBLE VERSE: MỖI NGÀY MỘT CÂU KINH THÁNH

    O LORD ARISE TO HAVE MERCY ON THE CHURCH. FOR THIS IS THE TIME TO HAVE MERCY. YES LORD, THE TIME APPOINTED FOR MERCY HAS COME.
    "BEHOLD NOW IS THE FAVORABLE TIME. THIS IS THE DAY OF SALVATION."

    "Thus says the Lord: In a time of favor I answer you, on the day of salvation I help you; and I have kept you and given you as a covenant to the people, To restore the land and allot the desolate heritages, Saying to the prisoners: Come out! To those in darkness: Show yourselves! Along the ways they shall find pasture, on every bare height shall their pastures be. They shall not hunger or thirst, nor shall the scorching wind or the sun strike them; For he who pities them leads them and guides them beside springs of water....

    "But Zion said, “The Lord has forsaken me; my Lord has forgotten me.” Can a mother forget her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should she forget, I will never forget you." (Isaiah 49: 8... 15).

    Wednesday, of the 4th week of Lent 2022.

    The kindness and mercy of God is in full display in our first Reading. The People broke the Covenant with God and suffered as a result. The suffering was crushing. They must have muttered thus: "We are convinced now that God has utterly forsaken and forgotten us." How close have you been to despair? You pray for recovery from illness but no sign of healing. For the mending of a broken family but things get worse. For financial improvement but slide into bankruptcy. Or any one of the conditions that befalls man on earth.
    If you or your loved ones is in any of the above situation, God has a special good news for you in His word today.

    "Can a mother forget her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should she forget, I will never forget you." (Isaiah 49: 15).
    But in case you still have some doubts, "See, upon the palms of my hands I have engraved you." The Lord God assures us. (Isaiah 49: 16).

    Now, the ball is in your court:
    To believe or not to believe. It is a choice. If you believe, appropriate the Scripture, write it down, memorize it and repeat it until it is yours.

    "The LORD is faithful in all his words and holy in all his works.
    The LORD lifts up all who are falling
    and raises up all who are bowed down." (Psalm 145: 13 - 14).
    The Lord is gracious and merciful. His mercies never fail.

    "Glory and praise to you, O Christ!
    God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son: everyone who believes in him has eternal life.
    Glory and praise to you, O Christ!" (John 3: 16).

    DAILY BIBLE VERSE: MỖI NGÀY MỘT CÂU KINH THÁNH
    "ANH HÃY CHỖI DẬY, VAC CHÕNG MÀ ĐI ! NGƯỜI ẤY LIỀN KHỎI BỆNH, VAC  CHÕNG VÀ ĐI ĐƯỢC." (GIOAN 5, 8-9)

    OUR GOD IS OUR HEALER, OUR REFUGE IN ALL TYPES OF DISTRESS. HE IS OUR STRENGTH. CALL ON HIM WITH ABUNDANT TRUST IN THE DAY OF DISTRESS AND HE WILL ANSWER YOU. GOD NEVER FAILS!

    "There was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now there is in Jerusalem at the Sheep Gate a pool called in Hebrew Bethesda, with five porticoes. In these lay a large number of ill, blind, lame, and crippled. One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been ill for a long time, he said to him, “Do you want to be well?” The sick man answered him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; while I am on my way, someone else gets down there before me.” Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your mat, and walk.” Immediately the man became well, took up his mat, and walked.” (John 5: 1.... 6)=

    Tuesday 29th March 2022, in the 4th Week of Lent.

    Our Gospel of today records the encounter of Jesus with a crippled man. Jesus knew he had been in this condition for 38 years. What the man did not know was that Jesus was not there by chance or accident. Jesus had a divine appointment with the crippled man on that day and place and time. Happily the crippled man was ready and received his healing.

    We are saved by grace through faith. The day Jesus freed me from the oppression of alcohol by His merciful love, I received a free gift but I cooperated with Jesus like the crippled man by saying "Yes Lord. Heal me."

    Where do you need healing in your life? Jesus is always passing by. Are you ready for Him?

    "My Mother is the agent of all healing, the chosen instrument of the Holy Spirit for the restoration of life, of light, and of unity in every place or instance where these are lacking. Not until this sovereign disposition of My Father is recognized and confessed will there be the healing, purification, and sanctification of the priesthood and of the Church for which so many souls labour and offer themselves. None of these objectives can be obtained by human means, or even by spiritual ones, apart from the role that belongs to My Mother and to none other, because she alone is the Immaculate and, so, is alone the human instrument fit for the workings of the Holy Spirit." (IN SINU JESU, Thursday, January 29, 2009).

    DAILY BIBLE VERSE: MỖI NGÀY MỘT CÂU KINH THÁNH
    **NGƯỜI CON QUYẾT TÂM TRỞ VỀ: "I SHALL GET UP AND GO TO MY FATHER..." (LUCA 15, 18)

    "THE GRACE OF A GOOD DEED IS DOUBLED WHEN IT IS DONE WITH PROMPTNESS AND SPEED" - ST GREGORY NAZIANZEN.

    "Coming to his senses he thought, ‘How many of my father’s hired workers have more than enough food to eat, but here am I, dying from hunger.  I shall get up and go to my father and I shall say to him,“Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you." (Luke 15: 17 - 18).

    "THƯA CHA, CON ĐÃ LỖI PHẠM ĐẾN TRỜI VÀ ĐẾN CHA". (LUCA 15, 18)

    Sunday 27th March of the 4th week of Lent.

    We reflect on the model of conversion offered us in the story of the Prodigal Son. Conversion, metanoia is what Lent is all about. Not just a conversion from a life of sin, but conversion from a mediocre Christian to a Spirit-filled Christian, on fire to be an ambassador for Christ. This is possible for everyone because of the mercy of God who has promised that Lent is a favorable time for mercy and favors.

    Let us reflect on insight of the Church  about conversion using the Parable of the Prodigal Son:
    "The process of conversion and repentance was described by Jesus in the parable of the prodigal son, the center of which is the merciful father: the fascination of illusory freedom, the abandonment of the father's house; the extreme misery in which the son finds himself after squandering his fortune; his deep humiliation at finding himself obliged to feed swine, and still worse, at wanting to feed on the husks the pigs ate; his reflection on all he has lost; his repentance and decision to declare himself guilty before his father; the journey back; the father's generous welcome; the father's joy - all these are characteristic of the process of conversion. The beautiful robe, the ring, and the festive banquet are symbols of that new life - pure worthy, and joyful - of anyone who returns to God and to the bosom of his family, which is the Church. Only the heart of Christ who knows the depths of his Father's love could reveal to us the abyss of his mercy in so simple and beautiful a way."(CCC 1439).

    Be who you are redeemed to be:
    A new creation and ambassador for Jesus Christ. (Cf 2 Corinthians 5: 17 - 21).

    "Praise and honour to you, Lord Jesus!
    I will leave this place and go to my father and say:
    ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.’
    Praise and honour to you, Lord Jesus!" (Luke 15: 18).

    "My Heart burns with love for you and for the brothers I have given you. Yes, they are also your sons, for I have entrusted them to your fatherly care, and I ask you to love them with a paternal tenderness. Do not be weak in loving them nor afraid to challenge them to conversion of life and to growth in holiness. I give to you and to them all the graces necessary to go forward and to bear fruit that will last for the sake of My beloved priests and for the holiness of My Bride the Church, even in the face of her enemies." (IN SINU JESU, Monday, July 11, 2011 After Second Vespers of Our Holy Father Saint Benedict).

    DAILY BIBLE VERSE : MỖI NGÀY MỘT CÂU KINH THÁNH:
    "ÔNG TIN VÀO LỜI ĐỨC GIÊ-SU NÓI VỚI MÌNH, VÀ RA VỀ".
    (LUCA 4, 50)
     

    FEAR IS USELESS.
    WORRY IS USELESS.
    DOUBT IS USELESS.
    WHAT IS NEEDED IS TRUST.

    "Then Jesus returned to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. Now there was a royal official whose son was ill in Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, who was near death. Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe.” The royal official said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” Jesus said to him, “You may go; your son will live.” The man believed what Jesus said to him and left." (John 4: 43.....54).

    Monday 28th March 2022 of the 4th week of Lent.

    In our key Scripture for today, we see an example of faith. Faith is the radical trust and confidence in the word of Christ. Jesus said simply to the Royal Official: “You may go; your son will live.” The Scripture records:
    "The man believed what Jesus said to him and left." (John 4: 50).

     

    Our faith contains our obedience. We see the example in the Gospel of today. To say that "I believe" and act contrary to what you believe is not faith but hypocrisy.

    If any Christian invests time and resources to learn what Faith is and how Faith works, the harvest will be incredibly huge and this gift will keep giving and giving all your life.

    Consider Faith as Obedience. The Royal Official heard Jesus say: Don't worry. Go home. Your son is OK. He believes and went home. He obeyed the directive. No questions. No arguments. Are you able to imitate his action and show the Obedience of Faith?

    Consider also that the man's faith was prepared by what he heard about Jesus before he met Him.
    "When he heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, who was near death."

    When we read the Gospel, we see many healings and miracles. The stories are preparing us to believe and deepen our Faith in Jesus. You do not know when you will stand face to face with Jesus needing His help. Faith comes from hearing. Hearing the word of God and believing it.

    "Many priests do not have a real and practical faith in My Eucharistic presence. Do they not know that the Eucharist encloses within itself all the merits of My Passion? Let them recover the faith of their childhood. Let them come to find Me there where I am waiting for them and I, for My part, shall work miracles of grace and holiness in them." (IN SINU JESU, Monday, October 29, 2007).

    DAILY BIBLE VERSE: MỖI NGÀY MỘT CÂU KINH THÁNH = OH GOD! BE MERCIFUL TO ME A SINNWER: "LẠY CHÚA! XIN THƯƠNG XÓT CON LÀ KẺ CÓ TỘI" (LUCA 18: 13)

    BY  PRAYER, FASTING AND ALMSGIVING, BREAK WITH YOUR ADDICTIONS AND SINFUL HABITS IN THIS HOLY SEASON OF LENT. GOD IS WAITING.

    "Jesus addressed this parable to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else. “Two people went up to the temple area to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector......
    ‘O God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of humanity—greedy, dishonest, adulterous—or even like this tax collector.....
    "But the tax collector stood off at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his breast and prayed, ‘O God, be merciful to me a sinner.’
    I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.” (Luke 18: 9 - 14).

    Saturday 26th March 2022 of the 3rd week of Lent. Our Gospel today is the narrative of the Pharisee and the Public Sinner.

    What are the lessons for us on this mid point of Lent.
    #1 The Pharisee trained in theology and spirituality does not know the God he claims to serve. Jesus came to call the sinner and not the righteous. Heaven rejoices exceedingly over one sinner who repents. "It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice." (Hosea 6: 6).
    #2 The Publican no doubt is guilty as accused.  Like the Good Thief beside Jesus on the Cross at Calvary, the tax has heard about the extraordinary mercy of God. He believes what he heard and came to the Temple to seek out the God of all mercies and the Father of every consolation. He seeks and found what he sought and went home transformed and justified.

    Let us observe a couple of things about the tax collector:
    He does not raise his eyes to heaven. He beat his chest, a sign of repentance and sorrow. The Church makes us repeat this gesture when we say the Confiteor (I confess to Almighty God and to you my brothers and sisters... " Humility is a condition for receiving mercy.
    We cannot think of mercy without remembering the teachings of Jesus on mercy. Mercy is given to whoever asks for mercy no matter the sin. But he who receives mercy must extend mercy.

    "O God, be merciful to me a sinner." (Luke 18: 13).

    Harden not your hearts today,
    but listen to the voice of the Lord.
