Be Human !!!!!! St. John Bosco

 


The need of the modern world is to be more human and humane. Many people are mercilessly ignored, rejected and killed for no reason and fault. Some of them are killed because of their Identity or allegiance to one particular political party, caste, creed or religion. we are losing touch with humanity. Many innocent children are massacred or made to work as a child labour. 


Many children are killed before they see the light of the world. Many youth are losing their track and way due to social media and what the society has to offer them. Many of them are searching for meaning and significance in their lives but do not have role models to guide them. 


The model and example of St. John Bosco is still valid and in use all over the world. Today the church and the Salesians are celebrating the feast and it would be wonderful to offer a new the model of him and follow his example to work for the youth who need us so much to be their guides.


Don Bosco looked at the reality that was around him with human eyes and heart and extended his help and support to the children and showed them a right path to follow. He became to these youth a model of good and spiritual life, he followed them like a brother and father, offered whatever help and support they need to follow the Gospel way of living in the world. 


As a friend he allowed the youth to grow in the image of Jesus and offered them divine and human paths to follow to be what God wants them to be. He was able to bring them out of bad and sinful situation to lead them to fullness of life with the grace of God.

Grow like a Mustard seed in Patience and not in a speed!!!!!!!


Jesus Christ taught the secrets of growing in Love and building up the Kingdom of God through out the Gospels. He indicates the right nature, attitude and behavior, the believers need in order to be the part of the building process of the kingdom of God. The seed of grace and love that He sows in each of us is like the mustard seed that grows silently and patiently without making any noise or sound but in obedience grows to be a biggest shrub. The growing of the mustard seed teaches us that God's word acts in our life provided we allow patiently and silently God's word to work in us. 



Many of God's blessings and graces act and wok in us without us realizing  it but the fruits and effects are seen in our words, deeds and actions. We as human being dependent on God's grace need to welcome it in a worthy manner by preparing our heart and soul to receive it. Once the soil of attitude and behaviour is right and prepared the grace blooms beyond our expectations and imaginations. Like the seed which grows without haste, pause and making any noise but graciously becomes what it is called to be. 



We with modern social media and comforts, technology and computerization often are impatient with ourselves and with others, we would like to have quick and fast results, sometimes it leads us to depressions and desperation when not results are not achieved. Quick changes do not last long they satisfy us for that moment and then leave us empty and broken. 



We live immersed in the culture of rapidity, but God, who is Love, is patient & that is what He invites us to do: to know how to wait, not to be discouraged, not to judge before the time, because germination is slow & we can devastate it if we do not respect its time. If we want to work for the Kingdom of God, we must learn to be patient & let the grace of God act in each soul, without imposing our rhythms. He knows how to do it. Yes the Kingdom grows, slowly, hidden when we least expect it, we see it's fruits. Today more dan ever we must have confidence & believe God, for it is not we who make the seed grow, but He.

Be Wise and Live your Life

You are never too young and never too old, to influence and inspire the world, around you. If you go out determined, to live at your best, you are raising the bar

It feels good to remember, where you started... and appreciate, how much you have accomplished.. however little:) Though human tendency, is to always want more
Your life will be more rewarding, more fulfilling, when you’re in a relationship with your Creator. He breathed life into you. He knows what your purpose is, and He knows what you can accomplish. To attract what you want, you do not work out HOW it will come about. Focus on the outcome, imagine it, believe it, and give thanks.When you make excuses for people, who cross your boundaries, you remove the possibility of a happy, healthy connection. Hold people accountable and remain discerning, with who gets.. to be in your life

When something means the world to you, it's more important to keep going, than to be the best. The world, will only celebrate your wins for so long, but it's you, who can celebrate your perseverance.. forever.Don't be afraid to do something, just because you're scared, of what people are going to say, about you. People will judge you, no matter what.

Wonderful Christmas Week to end with New Year Celebrations!!!!1

 Don't be afraid to do something, just because you're scared, of what people are going to say, about you. People will judge you, no matter what.

The love you give today, is an investment in your future, for tomorrow is seeded, by what is given now! Remember, that you can touch so many lives, by simply being in joy.

This New Year, you can be, whoever you want to be. Just be honest and kind. And be the kind of person..who helps other people see their worth and beauty. May you find peace, purpose and more prosperity in 2022.There are tests we have to pass. One of them is being faithful, when nothing is changing, doing our best when it's not growing, being good to people, that are not being good to us.People will try to squeeze you, into what they're used to, into what they think. Take advice, listen to counsel, but you may have to disappoint a few people, to reach your destiny.You never really know, the impact you have on people around you. You never know, how much someone needed that smile, you gave them. You never know, how much your kindness turned someone's entire life around. You never know, how much someone needed, that long hug or deep talk.

As you get older, you really just want to be surrounded, by good people. People that are good for you, good to you, and good to your soul.

There are some things we never have to apologize for, like having feelings, standing up for what we believe in, removing people from our life, who repeatedly cross our boundaries... 
Integrity is the compatibility and consistency, between what you say and what you do...and is directly related, to the success of your relationships.I have faced so many challenges this past year, but I was blessed, to have some pretty amazing people, who stood right by my side, through it all. All I can say, is 'Thank you' from the bottom of my heart.
