dear loggers, happy 5th anniversary!
the Lord Almighty is to be praised and to be lifted on high!
he has done great things for us. his abundant love he had showered upon each one of us and to our community.
throughout my journey, i have grown a lot and learnt a lot. the memories and journey are dear to my heart. they'll surely be a part of me that i will never forget.
i look forward to many years of growth with you guys as i have accepted each one of you into my life and heart.
to the sowers, thanks for making the time to come down. despite the programme you guys had. to those that werent physically there to celebrate, thanks for being there in spirit. your presence still resides within our hearts in the midst of fun we had.
the Lord is truly great. he has blessed me with a wonderful community and a beautiful bunch of brothers and sisters. i thank the Lord for his gift of love to me and my community. (:

a personal reflection, to those who attended 9am community Mass, i hope you all paid attention to father bosco's homily. but to the sowers who werent present, i would love to share this with you guys. father used the 2nd reading of today as the main highlight of him homily. he spoke about love. and he tasked all of us to a challenge. and i will humbly take up the challenge. his challenge was to go to someone you have never said i love you before or to someone you have not said i love you before. this challenge is to heal broken wounds or to make a relation between people progress. as he spoke, the spirit worked within me and i know who i need to give those 3 words to. it is someone i have never said i love you before and its someone which i feel God has tasked me to approached him. i trust in the Lord and i will take up the challenge.
next, the second reading emphasize on love.
it goes,

Love is always patient and kind; it is never jealous; love is never boastful or conceited; it is never rude or selfish; it does not take offence, and not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins but delight in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.

and Jesus is love too. so,

Jesus is always patient and kind; he is never jealous; Jesus is never boastful or conceited; he is never rude or selfish; he does not take offence, and not resentful. Jesus takes no pleasure in other people's sins but delight in the truth; he is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.

and Jesus taught us to love and this is my personal conviction to follow his way, and i hope all of you out there will do too (:

Kenneth is always patient and kind; he is never jealous; love is never boastful or conceited; he is never rude or selfish; he does not take offence, and not resentful. I take no pleasure in other people's sins but delight in the truth; and is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.

(Your Name) is always patient and kind; he/she is never jealous; love is never boastful or conceited; he/she is never rude or selfish; he/she does not take offence, and not resentful. I take no pleasure in other people's sins but delight in the truth; and is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.

i hope you all would hold 1 Corinthians 12:31-13:13 close to your heart, with regards to love. because love, is the spring of life.

1 Corinthians 13:13
Meanwhile these three remain: faith hope and love; and the greatest of these is love.

Labels: the Lord is my Shepherd and I want to follow.
