CHRIST THE KING OF PEACE REIGNS IN OUR VIRTUOUS HEARTS: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION: 34TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, SOLEMNITY OF CHRIST THE UNIVERSE KING, CYCLE A, 2023

There is nowhere Christ the King can reign more than in our hearts and over our lives. The truth is that Christ does not want to be a proclaimed King on the lips of men and women. He wants to be enthroned in our lives, marriages, families, churches, communities and everyday affairs but above all in our hearts.

CHRISTIAN STEWARDSHIP AND ACCOUNTABILITY: CATHOLIC SCRIPTURE SUNDAY REFLECTION: 33RD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, CYCLE A, 2023

Life is a gift of God to us without any merit of ours, but the Christian principle of fulfilling or doing the will of God calls us to a life of stewardship and accountability. We are not only challenged by service but also the transparency of rendering account to God for his trust to confide us with able talents or gifts according to our capability.

PREPAREDNESS OF HOPE: THE END TIME: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 32ND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, CYCLE A, 2023

We are not meant to live forever and the thought of dying one day can be very scary especially when there is no preparedness or hope for the end time. As Christians what gives our human existence a a sense of meaningfulness is our hope of the resurrection. Hence, amidst the uncertainty of earthly life, the Christian hope assures of a bright tomorrow.

TRUE RELIGION LIBERATES US: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTION: 31ST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, CYCLE A, 2023

This is an irrefutable statement any form of true religion liberates us from the shackles of enslavement not to only sin but to persons and things. This is what makes Christ different from other religious leaders. His life, deeds and teachings have one principal motive to direct men and women to God freely them from all internal or external enslavement.
