Judas betrayed Jesus. Peter denies Jesus. Friends who in an instant forget their Good Friend. But the difference between Judas and Peter is this: 1.despairs and kills himself, the other admits his faults and picks up where he fails. Our failures and betrayals are not the end but lesson on how to start again.
April 27,’07-’I will fulfill to you my promise..For surely I know the plans I have for you..plans for your welfare and not harm, ti give you a future with hope.’(Jer:29:10-11) Gos has a special plan for you. Have you actually asked yourself what it is? Do the things you do now help you fulfill His plan for you?
April 25,’07-Imagine you’re the woman almost stoned to death. Jesus comes to your rescue, telling you: ‘Neither do I condemn you, go away and don’t sin again.’ How will you feel? The Lord dosn’t leave us even we have sinned. He teaches us: condemn the sin but not the sinner. Is it easy for you to do this?
April 18,’07-Like the younger son in the parable of the wayward son, we sometimes travel ‘to a distant country.’ We go far from home, away from our true Loves and waste the blessings we have. We lose our way. But let us remember: the Father awaits us with eagerness and compassion, even when we are still far off.’
April 04.’07-We have our own gardens of Gethsemane. We find ourselves overburdened by big responsibilities, paralyzed by our fears. We fell alone and abandoned. What do we think in this dark moments of our lives? Does this makes us surrender, and pray more sincerely, telling the Father ‘not my will but yours be done’?
