2nd Day of the CPO - Morning prayer and Eucharist

The second day of the CPO began thanking and praising the Lord...through meditation and followed by Mass and the morning prayer.....I celebrated the Eucharist this morning....it was in English....we are going to celebrate Eucharist in various languages and singing too is done in various languages...it is good to see and hear many melodies voices singing all heavenly languages....

I preached on the Kingdom of God.....Jesus had to face a lot of opposition for his good works....the satan, evil spirit, the religious authorities and even his followers opposed his good work....they did not understand why Jesus as a messiah was not establishing the kingdom....as humans they were....expecting a visible kingdom with boundaries and army.....nothing of that sort happened....they accepted his works.....believed in Him and saw that he was performing miracles and healing but no visible sign of a Kingdom....there was confusion and disorder in the minds of the people and disciples so he narrated the parable of yeast and mustard seeds....small and insignificant and yet powerful and give life....full of life and potentialities.....so too the kingdom of God....powerful with small actions and deeds......
