November 14, 2010 Sunday Gospel Reflection
The gospel speaks to me as a sign of how materialism doesn’t matter. When we die, we won’t be able to bring anything we own here on earth, but if you carry the faith that was instilled in you during your baptism... not a single strand of your hair would be touch. He knows everything you do, everything you think. It wouldn’t even matter if you try to explain yourself to Him. He knows everything that is going on. How? He planned everything. He is the ultimate designer of all.
The war of good and evil is the longest battle. Temptations, sins, curses? They’re all signs that there is evil around us. What should we do? We carry our cross. Our cross is the burden we brought to the world. Our sins is what makes up that cross. Jesus carried a cross for us. He suffered for us. I think I could carry a cross of sins for Him. It’s the least I could do for my Saviour. Earthquakes may come, but I will keep my faith strong. It’s all for Him.
What should I do now? Think twice before I do anything. Is this the right thing to do? Is this just? Is what I’m doing going to affect anyone? Is it for the good or bad? I want to do things to make our world a better place. I will not be able to gain anything if I cause chaos. I’m doing everything for Him. That’s my service here on earth. When I die, I want my Father to be proud of me. I want Him to say that I did good.
