A Homily of thanks and appreciation.

Thanks & Appreciation

This morning, we were reminded of the many good works rendered by the lovely children of God, those who spent countless hours working behind the scene, just so that we could benefit and receive the grace that flows from every Eucharistic celebrations, especially the week-end masses. Marie must confess, it did not really strike her ( yes, she did see but somehow it did not register completely), how people worked so hard that others could celebrate mass and strengthen their faith. Shows how easily we take things for granted eh friends? And to the lovely lady with the nightingale voice- Sister you totally enthralled me! "The Lord have Mercy" sounded so amazing! If Marie may say so, Sister, you are indeed blessed with great vocal, great voice! Move over Jacqueline Victor!

To the dedicated JS, our BEC captain and the team, thanks for a lovely month of October ! And let us not forget the dynamic RCIA team as well! Sometimes, when things run so well and so smoothly, we fail to see and to thank those who worked so hard to ensure everything is in its proper place and the engine, running smoothly.

Of course we would notice the black spot on the white sheet of paper almost immediately, it appears; the whites totally blurs out as soon as a speck of black touches the white surface. Funny isn't it? Yours faithfully, is no exception, she sometimes blabbers as well!

Today's message arising from the tale of the two widows, tells Marie that God sees and knows everything. In our darkest moments, He sends relief and comfort. When we lack the means, we are told not to fret because, God sees and understands our difficulties and our capabilities. A small portion in the eyes of others, may be 'chicken feed'; people may turn their noses down at us...but friends, that little bit, may well fill the whole strongroom of heaven! It is not what people think and say that matters, but applause from the Lord! The rags that we wear may be the prettiest thing in the eyes of God! Remember that Folks! Marie herself needs constant reminders as well, let us therefore draw strength and wisdom from one another! Have a nice day Folks!
