TODAY CHURCH INVITE YOU TO FIND THE WAYS OF MAKING GOD RESIDE WITH YOU.

Coinciding this reading, there are 3 feast church celebrate this week(it is a coincidence!)


feast of St mark (25/4)
To know, Jesus's life read,one has to read 4Gospels,MATTEW,MARK, LUKE& JOHN. These were written in(40-100AD),after Jesus ascended into heaven.
Matthew &John were 2of Jesus's12 Apostles who have heard what Jesus said &saw what HE did in person.
Mark &Luke are disciples(2/72).Luke received information from Holy Mary &Mark was Peter secretary &interpreter.

No one took NOTES while Jesus was preaching. No LETTERS were written by Jesus to anyone. But we believe all these sacred scriptures were WRITTEN with INSPIRATION of HOLY SPIRIT.

Mark is symbolized by LION WITH WINGS. His Gospel is the SHORTEST Gospel &can be READ in1Hr.(other gospel in 1 1/2hr each)Mark spoke of real power of Jesus &carried fewer sermons &many continuous narratives to attract Romans.
Mark;son of Mary,(active Christian member at Jerusalem &friend of Peter),is patron saint of Notaries,for lightning/hail. Are you reading his Gospel at least once a month or yearly to know what he says?


Feast of Pope St pius V(1/5)

Pope St.Pius V,made Roman missal in1570 for liturgy of latinMass(400 yrs unchanged till revision1970)& popularise Rosary.PiusV,reduced cost of church,stood firm against nepotism& became great Church Reformist,just after depart of Protestants/Anglicans.
  

Feast of St Joseph,the wonder worker

Joseph is just & obedient man who helped to carry out great mysterious of salvation. ex
(1)He secretly thought to leave Mary, but reminds us when you are with God,God will direct you to truth

(2)that you have unique work to do for God,different to others.

Under him,child Jesus got 1st lessons,in workshop &became carpenter. An abiding consolation & joy for Jesus&Joseph midst their daily toil was that Mary,devoted mother &spouse,was ever at their service in background.She created loving environment to play their trade & earn a steady livelihood. Mary was the 3rd worker in HOLY FAMILY-the earthly Trinity which mirrored heavenly one.

Many popes  from Leo XIII from1889,put special relation of workers & St Joseph,which coincide labour Movement!.1/5/1955 Pope PiusXII declared feast of Joseph to workers. Nazerath remind us"IF ANY ONE WILL NOT WORK"-"LET HIM NOT EAT"(2 Thess.3:10).


 Effect of Paradigm change

Living world is ever changing. Jesus traveled on a donkey but today priests use cars. Certain religions priest are not allowed to drive.
Imagine your grandfather having a dog 25yrs ago. Now U have your own dog. Both dog's way of life(paradigm of living) is the same.
You use iPhones now which your ancestors didn't have. Though having a dog now&25 years ago have same purpose,but you are a changed generation now. Are U not going to use your I Phone because your ancestors didn't use it? Technology is evolving.

Holy Spirit make world more dynamic & interesting for every generation to live.

 But been happy doesn't change with time. Your grandfather happily survived without iPhone. All these changes make people more efficient than past,leaving more free time for people resulting distraction.

Identify actions to convert your talents to skills to knowledge, then with hardwork, you develop a good attitude without craving too much of FB, Computer games& gossiping.

Then following Catholicism,God will make your life Happy.


Today's reading:

First Reading - ACTS 15:1-2, 22-29

Act Says “Some men taught the believers: “Unless you’re circumcised, according to the custom by Moses, you cannot be saved.” This brought Paul & Barnabas into sharp dispute & debate with them”.

 

Second Reading - REV 21:10-14, 22-23

He showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God…  It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates… I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp.

 

Gospel – JOHN 14:23-29

Jesus said “Anyone who loves me will keep my word. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them… “All this I have spoken while still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid… If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

Reminds:
1)U have easy access to Bible, thru'internet/print,form)to read specially 4Gospels;
2)With Paradigm change U have more free time than your ancestors;
3)Free time shouldn't be wasted on,too much craving on TV,Movies,Computer games,FB,Newspapers,etc;
4)Always focus& reflect on 3Sunday readings(as it is obligatory);
5)Convert your talents to positive attitude;
6)Avoid Laziness;
7)If U're not happy,think on Ur sins. Repent! Go to priest for confession.GO THRU'Door Of Mercy'for INDULGENCE,before20/11/2016.

In summary, during easter season, we focused mainly how to become an eagle,roaring in sky! For that, we should know, how to manage Paradigm changes. On one hand we will have higher efficiency than previous generation, that crates more free time for you to manage. Similarly the specific responsibilities of priest as well as layman's were reflected.
