Cycle 3: Season: Lent, Sunday No 3: Date:28/2/16; Proactive Catholic - in detail

A. Back ground: during this lent we started reflecting:
(1) understand concept of Catholicism or why God has created you? For what purpose. Then only you have to read the scriptures, otherwise you might end up in the hands of Satan.
(2) Any religious person has to have the religious Ethics. What is 7 catholic religious ethics, given by Father and son?. Then after that what are the ethics given by Holy Spirit thru' church for you?. Clearly understand that and adhere in your life
(3) When you follow above (1)+(2), what you should see in your life. You should see the dazzling God, in your life. You will see, how HE has safeguarded you, even when
You were sinning. You will get confidence about God, even for your future activities.

Today,
You will see, that, how you convert your talents to attitudes, serving society, be a fruit full human. This will lead a proactive life for you. What is proactive has to be clearly understand!.

B. Preamble for today's readings:

B.1- human types:

People are of 3 types
(1)Inactive-Laziness/primary reason,while getting frequent anger/no ability to persist in activity,looks like extreme lack of motivation

(2)Reactive- you are active but with Pride,envy,lust, avarice,gluttony. You will be happy when expected results of your action is met,otherwise your thought process become dull&exhibit no emotionality.

(3)Proactive-able to change events rather than react to them &make things happen. For that practice 7Ethics of Catholicism,(10 comms+7 sacraments+avoid7vices+practice7 Corporal/Spiritual Mercies+pardoning+love). You enjoy wisdom of your life.(God guarantee your HAPPINESS).

B.2 peaceful and worry free mind
By following 7 catholic ethics and adhering to church rules, you can develop peaceful mind. In order to achieve, you should be sin less. You should be clear, by getting pardoning from your sins, through the sacrament of confession. Then only you can achieve peaceful mind. Then your worries can be handed over thru' mary + saints to God, to have a worry less mind. This year catholics are opportune to have a door of Mercy. What is Door of Mercy?

Pope Francis has declared extraordinary Jubilee year until20/11/2016. You can receive Indulgence(granting freedom for punishment due to sin)by going thru 'Door Of Mercy'!,with,

(1)CONFESSION{even severe sins such as abortion, you can get it pardoned)
(2)receive HOLY EUCHARIST
(3)cross Door
(4)PRAY FOR intention of POPE)

Conditions: (1) within 20 days,after holy Eucharist, you can cross the door
(2)Only once/day you can cross
(3) While crossing, you can request for your help and to support any death person,releasing from purgatory!.

B.2 Today Gospel reading invites us to reflect about, fruit fullness of our life. Everybody in this world likes to achieve this. Jesus tell us a parable. In the parable, one person waited for 3 years; to see fruits in the fig tree. Why 3 years specific? Why not 5 years?
Here Jesus is fore telling that 3 year cycle of sunday readings, which will be available after 1500 years. Why, 1500 years?. Because it took around 1500 years to organize this kind of sunday readings, with St Pius V started around 1550. This has been revised by Bl paul VI, during 2nd vatican council. It is amazingly synchronized, the sections from bible, for reading 1(normally from old testament), reading 2(normally from early church) and from Gospels. Hands of Holy spirit is clearly shown!. One can enlighten about total Catholicism, when they reflect all sunday readings in one cycle of 3 years. When you are reflecting don't forget the concept of catholism;
(1) God has created you to be happy
(2)Father phase- During old testament God was training humans(thru' jews) how to use free will and given 10 commandments
(3)Son's phase- jesus showed us how to manage our free will, provided 7 ethics to follow.
(4) Holy spirit formed the church; thru' papal infallability, HE will guide all humans, how to manage paradigm change of people due to technological advancements. HE will provide necessary church rules to be adhered by humans, in addition to 7 Ethics for catholics.



C. Today's Readings:
Book of Exodus(Ex 3:1-8.13-15) says"GOD appeared to Moses/as fire flame in a bush which wasn?t burning/God said?I?m God of Ur fathers/I?ve heard  cry of my people in Egypt,against slave drivers/Say to them?God of Abraham sent me to U"

Paul(1 cor 10:1-6.10-12) says?Our ancestors had a cloud over them,passed thru?a sea,ate& drank from spiritual rock.That rock was Christ?

Lk(13:1-9)says "Were these Galileans worse sinners?Unless U repent U'll perish/Parable of Fig tree-No fruits for 3years/Cut it down if it doesn?t bear fruit within next year?


D. Remind;Outcome of catholic life depends on Reading scripture with catholic concept&following 7Ethics.Then you are PROACTIVE(change events than react to them & make things happen). Your life become fruitful &Happy. Your actions will talk louder than words. You will develop good attitude towards society, towards God's kingdom(talent/skills/knowledge/hard work/attitude for glory of GOD).


E. Conclusion: during lent, first sunday, we were warned to reflect Bible, with the clear understanding about "concept of Catholicism" otherwise, you end up in the hands of satan.
During 2nd sunday, we were told,that when we follow. 7 catholic Ethics+ church rules, you will see magic in your life; I.e God has been with you from your birth, and you become convince that the presence of God, in all your actions. Today, we were reminded that life is complex. Sometimes you get angry, sometimes you are about to fight, but you were given a message to move forward without any problem to your life. Ie Proactive ness. How God is going to save you, without falling to a pit. Sometimes getting a flat tyre while you are going to air port and missing the flight will be a blessing to avoid a danger for you. Or sometimes, unwanted person trying to fight with you, so that you will be delayed in traveling, may be a blessing for you to avoid an accident.  You will see, when you are with God, you become PROACTIVE. For a short period of time you notice, un logical,unexpected thing happen, for you to change the direction. There is no other way that God can change your direction otherwise. Today you will see the practical catholic life. Other aspect that we are told today was, that we should develop our talents to good attitudes. For this it is very important for us to avoid 7 vices; sloth,anger,pride,envy,lust,avarice,gluttony
Once you achieve both of these, you become a Proactive catholic.
