CHRIST IS THE LORD AND GIVER OF LIFE: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 13TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, CYCLE B, 2024

ByOnuh

God from all intent and purpose wants us to have life and abundance; he is the giver of life, not death. This mystery of God´s generosity in life to us is difficult to understand, especially in a world with too many miseries.

Human sufferings, miseries, death, and evil are not God´s making or doing. It came because of Satan and the evil ones as well as the choices we make in life. The culture of death around us today is all man´s making.

MEANING IN DYING: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 5TH SUNDAY IN LENT, CYCLE B, 2024

ByOnuh

In life, someone argues, there is meaning in dying in loving services for others. True life’s meaning is found when we live for others. This is because there is an absurdity that comes with life. When this sense of absurdness engulfs us with a sense of uncertainty and insecurity life becomes meaningless. In a moment like this, we can only find fulfillment and a sense of meaningfulness in the service of others through God.

VOCATION IS A CALL BY NAME: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 2ND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, CYCLE B, 2024

ByOnuh

Life is a vocation and it is one which God calls us by name! Our vocation is to know God, love Him, and serve Him in our fellow brothers and sisters. Every state of our life is a calling from God. We are called to life when we were born. We do not exist by accident. We were also called to the Christian life in Christ Jesus when we were baptized. We have specific vocations to marital life, consecrated life, or to live life in singlehood. Whatever our state or calling, living fully within God´s plan for us is a vocation. A life, God intended for us to know, to love, and to serve Him in others.

OUR JOURNEY OF FAITH AMONG THE SADNESS AND DISAPPOINTMENT OF LIFE: CATHOLIC SUNDAY SCRIPTURE REFLECTIONS: 3RD SUNDAY OF EASTER, CYCLE A, 2023

ByOnuh

The road to Emmaus is our journey of faith amidst the sadness and disappointment of life. A lot of a journey through with a heavy burden of emotional luggage. They weigh and deprive us of life’s joy, happiness and peace. Hence, many of us go through life in a very miserable way carrying the endless burden of pain, shame, guilt and cares.

The disciples’ journey to Emmaus amid apparent hopelessness is also our journey of faith in the mysteries of Christ, especially his resurrection. Often in life, we travel with a deep sense of grief, sadness, and disappointment over things that have happened to us.
