Marie heard the distinct voice of St Paul, his firm footsteps at her parish this morning! An ardent appeal, moving and passionate from one who seeks to bring the flock entrusted him back to God. This is the period of Advent! This is the time to clear the ugly cobwebs clinging to us, cleanse ourselves , change our soiled clothes into clean garments and be ready for his coming! Yes, commit to smoothen the many imperfections in ourselves through deeds and actions pleasing to our God; prepare to put our best foot forward and God willing, continue to walk in ways pleasing to Him....until His coming...
.
And if Marie may say so...fortunate are those with the time, the energy, the capability to serve God as they do now... indeed, they are blessed and chosen by God, to gather treasures for themselves in heaven and ..shine radiantly - their good deeds in the Book of Life..!

Others like her, are otherwise tasked. They had been tasked other obligations and responsibilities . God has his reasons for doing that; the will of the Lord is beyond our understanding....Folks, have you ever gone through a journey when you were all set and ready to begin a journey of hearts desire and then suddenly out of the blues, your plans became "crooked..so bent" ..that somehow, you find yourselves blogged down- so many cares that you just were not able to carry out what you intended to do??? If you have gone through similiar frustrations, perhaps it pays to remember that "Man plans but it is God who decides "... Similiarily.... NOT all had been called and NOT all had been blessed to serve. There are other ways to be christian..the Lord himself will show us...love for neighbours, siblings, the weak, the sick..those less privileged than us.... a kind word of encouragement, a smile, in times of need etc...etc..
